Greetings, I read through the git-buildpackage docs and also a HOWTO by Russ Allbery [1] regarding git and Debian packaging. I am wondering if those who use git to manage their source package development are also using the debian/patches mechanism for modifying the upstream tarball. I receive the following error from lintian and am looking for some guidance/best practices. % lintian --pedantic cdpr_2.3-3.dsc P: cdpr source: direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system Makefile and 1 more I am using git with no debian/patches (quilt/dpatch) to manage the cdpr package. Thanks for the tips, [1] http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/notes/debian/git.html -- Matt Zagrabelny - mzagrabe@d.umn.edu - (218) 726 8844 University of Minnesota Duluth Information Technology Systems & Services PGP key 4096R/42A00942 2009-12-16 Fingerprint: 5814 2CCE 2383 2991 83FF C899 07E2 BFA8 42A0 0942 He is not a fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose. -Jim Elliot
