Hello, First, I'm not a Debian maintainer, I mostly do some package for my personal use, to follow SVN trunk or git HEAD of some softwares. As I use Debian, I do not want to "make install" things. I attach[1] a rough document about my actual uses of git for debian packaging and post it here for comments. There are some items about which I would like to discuss, like: - automatic handling of debia/changelog - multi-distributions/version packaging (and avoiding conflicts) - automatic build of packages - management of orig.tar.gz I already read some maling-list archives, mostly the "Patch mgmt workflow proposal" plus the links givent in the thread, but the conversations are way to high for me. I read the Debian wiki[2] plus its links, I like Russ Allbery page[3], it's a real life example[4]. Regards. Footnotes: [1] I need to setup some web access to my git repositories
