uscan and git.gnome.org tags

2012-10-29 Thread Andreas Rönnquist
Hey

Is there any way to make a watch-file look for git tags on
git.gnome.org? I am preparing a package for a QA upload (for after the
freeze of course) for a package that I have a hard time finding a way to
make a watch file for the releases - it uses a wordpress blog as
homepage, where it has put the latest release, where I have no luck
making uscan get it, and uses gnome git for version handling.

I have found there is a few redirectors for various hosting pages
like sourceforge and similar - is there something for git.gnome.org and
the tags from there?

Hello,

I'm looking at the 'nautilus' package, and this is the contents of the file
'debian/watch':

version=3
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/nautilus/([\d\.]+)/ \
nautilus-(.*)\.tar\.xz

Nautilus, being a GNOME project, keeps its code in git.gnome.org (
http://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/) as well as uploading it to the FTP
above.

By looking at one of the projects on git.gnome.org, I can see that the
format of the tag is:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/project/tag/?id=tagname

However, I don't see any tarballs available to download from there.
Perhaps, if you give us the name of the package you're working on, I could
help you further and better.

Sincerely,
kroq-gar78

Hi - 
(No need to CC me, I am subscribed to the list.)

I am working on the devilspie package - which has a release mentioned
and linked in the last entry on Ross Burton's blog - 
http://www.burtonini.com/

I do however have problems getting a watch-file reading the folder
where the tar.xz is.

It does however have the git repository at
http://git.gnome.org/browse/devilspie/ where the source (and the
tags) can be found.

So, either getting the watchfile to work through the 
http://www.burtonini.com/computing/
folder, or through the git tags - I have had no luck with neither
method, and help would be much appreciated.

best
/Andreas

Excellent - Thanks! I guess I need more practise making watchfiles...
