FWIW, until very recently I did something similar for all of my packages: I pushed the commit as soon as I got the "ACCEPTED" message, then I waited until the next day when my nearest mirror would catch up with unstable, download the source package, diff it, and if everything was fine, only then would I push the tag to the Git repo. Right now, this means that there are a couple of my packages for which debaudit reports that it could not find the Debian upload tag - because it was not there soon after the package was accepted into the archive, it was only pushed many hours later :) Now I'm not saying that debaudit is wrong there, I mean, there might be valid reasons for other people (who run e.g. `debcheckout` soon after the new version is uploaded) to expect the tag to be there. I'm just saying this is something that can happen in various workflows. These days, if more people use tag2upload, of course that means the tag will be there way before the package is accepted. However, in various teams and in various people's personal workflows, there are many different situations, many quirks, and some of them are not outright wrong :) G'luck, Peter -- Peter Pentchev [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] PGP key: https://www.ringlet.net/roam/roam.key.asc Key fingerprint 2EE7 A7A5 17FC 124C F115 C354 651E EFB0 2527 DF13
