In fact, the last push to the Debian upstream branch before the 4.5.0 release was done at the time when 4.3.1 was released, which was some time after Bookworm and well before Trixie. The problem with the current Debian upstream branch is that it is not exactly the same as the Magit upstream git (and as a result the Debian upstream tag `upstream/X.X.X' is not the exact upstream tag `vX.X.X'), which breaks the expectation of tag2upload[1].

I thought the existence of pristine-tar branch indicates the workflow. Personally I prefer the dgit-maint-merge workflow anyway which is also tag2upload compatible. I have now updated d/gbp.conf and d/README.source to refer to the dgit-maint-merge workflow. I haven't deleted the branches yet, because I'm not sure whether the previous releases that did use pristine-tar could be broken. Though I guess we can always get the correct archives either through previous .dsc from the archive (or snapshot) or from dgit. If that is indeed the case, deleting the branches should be no problem. -- Regards, Xiyue Deng signature.asc Description: PGP signature
