&gbp-import-orig; imports upstream-source into
the &git; repository. upstream-source can either
be a gzip, bzip2, lzma or xz compressed tar archive, a zip archive or an
already unpacked source tree. If it is already of the form
package-name_version.orig.tar.gz, the version
information is read from the tarball's filename otherwise it can be given
on the command line via . If the source
package name or version can't be determined &gbp-import-orig; will prompt
for it unless is given.
The sources are placed on the upstream branch (default:
upstream), tagged and merged onto the debian
branch (default: master).
OPTIONS
&man.common.options.description;
=versionversion
The upstream version number
Merge the upstream branch to the debian branch after import
=branch_name
The branch in the Git repository the upstream sources are put
onto. Default is upstream.
=branch_name
The branch in the Git repository the Debian package is being
developed on, default is master. After
importing the new sources on the upstream branch, &gbp-import-orig;
will try to merge the new version onto this branch.
=tag_name
Add tag_name as additional parent to the
commit of the upstream tarball. Useful when upstream uses git and you
want to link to it's revision history.
GPG sign all created tags
gpg-keyid
use this keyid for gpg signing tags
tag-format
use this tag format when tagging upstream versions,
default is upstream/%(version)smsg-format
use this format string for the commit message when importing upstream
versions, default is
Imported Upstream version %(version)spattern
filter out files glob-matching pattern. Can be given multiple times.
generate pristine-tar delta file
if using a filter also filter the files out of the tarball
passed to pristine-tar
Whether to create and keep a symlink from the upstream tarball
to a Debian policy conformant upstream tarball name located in
../.
This is a good idea if not using pristine-tar
since it avoids creating a new tarball with a different md5sum.
run cmd after the import.
Use uscan to fetch new upstream version.
Run command interactively, i.e. ask package name and version if
needed.
EXAMPLES
Download and import a new upstream version using the informantion from debian/watch
&gbp-import-orig; --uscan
After downloading an upstream tarball by hand import it
&gbp-import-orig; ../upstream-tarball-0.1.tar.gz
&man.gbp.config-files;
