Hi, In many of our packages, we have a debian/.gitattributes file, which is used to avoid exporting gbp.conf, .gitattributes itself, and salsa-ci.yml (and sometimes other files, such as lintian-brush.conf).
I could not find any official recommendation about using .gitattributes to avoid exporting those files, nor a rationale. One side effect is that one cannot just use `gbp import-dsc` to import into git an upload that is missing (for example an NMU, or a team upload that wasn't pushed) since in that case, the export-ignored files would get removed in the git history. So I wonder if we should just remove them all. What do you think? Lucas
