Re: Bug#947550: RFH: salsa.debian.org/debian/dbab

[David Bürgin <dbuergin@gluet.ch>]

Hello Tong,

I’m not a mentor but I recently pushed an existing package to Salsa. I
now used the same procedure on your dbab package, you can see the result
at https://salsa.debian.org/glts-guest/dbab. Here’s what I did:

    gbp import-dscs --debsnap dbab
    cd dbab
    git remote add origin git@salsa.debian.org:glts-guest/dbab.git
    git push --all -u origin
    git push --tags

With this procedure all the history of snapshots/pristine-tars gets
imported, see https://salsa.debian.org/glts-guest/dbab/-/network/master.
I see that you didn’t import the existing history, so maybe your goal is
different …

I have this setting in ~/.gbp.conf to import the pristine tarballs
properly:

    [DEFAULT]
    pristine-tar = True

That’s it. Hope this is helpful.

Cheers,
