That's the issue, you see. Anything's better than svn. I personally use the
git-buildpackage suite of things for development locally. For packages not
maintained in git, I typically use git import-dsc(s) on downloaded .dsc files
before starting work. Debian makes this even nicer by having git import-dscs
--debsnap which pulls everything from snapshots.debian.org.I used to maintain some packages in DPMT/PAPT back before I became a DD, but it was such a pain to use SVN that I just moved everything to collab-maint. > issue (generated, of course with `bzr diff`). > > Heck, I'd even accept using git <gulp!> if Debian had anything as comfortable > as UDD for me. There was some talk on debian-devel about having everything on Debian imported into Git repositories, which would probably allow for a somewhat UDD-like workflow for Debian. Unfortunately, I think the usual debian-devel flames cut it short. -- Kind regards, Loong Jin
