- Building the Debian source package for ‘comixcursors’
- =====================================================
- :Maintainer: Ben Finney <bignose@debian.org>

- Build source package from VCS
- -----------------------------
- The source for the Debian packaging is managed in these conventional
- Git branches:
- * master: The current released code base.
- * packaging: Debian packaging development branch.
- * upstream: Upstream source code base, as imported from tarballs.
- * pristine-tar: Metadata for reproducibly generating upstream tarball.
- To build the source package from the Git VCS, use the Debian ‘gitpkg’
- tool to generate all the files::
- $ git checkout master
- $ gitpkg packaging upstream
- The ‘dpkg-source’ process will complain about the “deletion” of
- upstream source. This is because the upstream source is not present at
- all in the ‘packaging’ branch exported, but in the ‘upstream’ branch.
- The upstream source is safely exported earlier in its own tarball.
- The generated source package is the source control file
- ‘../deb-packages/comixcursors/comixcursors_$DEBIANVER.dsc’ and its
- associated files in that directory.
