Hi everybody,My access problem has been solved and I just created an empty repository for audela. Now I am wondering about the best (or at least standard) practice for the upstream code:
- include the upstream source tree in the repository (with git-import-orig)- only put the upstream tarball somewhere (the Games Team has a dedicated directory for this) and use git-buildpackage - or include the source tree AND the tarball (with the --pristine-tar option of git-import-orig, for example).
I am asking this because the source of audela is around 75MB. Thank you in advance for your tips. Regards, Vincent Le 12/04/2014 10:21, Thibaut Paumard a écrit :

Indeed, when I connect to git.debian.org, I am denied access to the /srv/git/debian-astro directory. Thus, I cannot create a repository. Am I doing something wrong? If so, what should I do instead?It's just /git, not /srv/git. However you don't seem to belong to the scm_debian-astro UNIX group, although you are junior developer in the project, which grants you commit access. Looks like a bug, perhaps you can ask the alioth administrators? I do see what I can do fro you from the project admin page.

Feel invited to join our team.For example, is there a list of tasks and/or already packaged software?Not directly so far. Since we originate from debian-science, the "astronomy" [2] and "astronomy-dev" [3] tasks lists of debian-science are good starting points.Anyway, if it has not been done so far, I will probably consider packaging AudeLa, an astro-imaging software.Welcome! I think this would be a good contribution. If you have questions, feel free to ask here. Please don't forget to issue an "ITP" for your software and put <debian-astro@lists.debian.org> in the X-Debbugs-Cc field. To put the package under Debian-Astro maintenance, set the Maintainer field in debian/control to "Debian Astronomy Maintainers <debian-astro-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>" and store your work in a git repository under /git/debian-astro/packages/ Best regards Ole [1] https://alioth.debian.org/projects/debian-astro/ [2] http://blends.debian.org/science/tasks/astronomy [3] http://blends.debian.org/science/tasks/astronomy-dev
