gbp-import-dscs - Import several versions of a Debian source package into a Git repository, sorted by
Contents
Description
gbpimport-dscs imports several versions of a Debian source package into a Git repository. To do so, it
sorts the packages by their versions first, and then imports them via calling gbpimport-dsc on each
package.
If the current directory isn't a Git repository already, the repository is created in a subdir of the
current working directory, named after the first imported package, otherwise the Git repository in the
current working directory is being used. This allows for incremental imports.
Examples
When run in an empty directory, download all versions of package entr available at Debian snapshots and
import them into a new git repository:
gbp import-dscs --verbose --pristine-tar --create-missing-branches --debsnap entr
Name
gbp-import-dscs - Import several versions of a Debian source package into a Git repository, sorted by
version number
Options
--debsnap
Fetch snapshots from snapshots.debian.org using debsnap.
--ignore-repo-config
Ignore gbp.conf files stored in the git repository itself. This can be useful to ignore branch in‐
formation and other options shipped in the package source.
All other options are passed on verbatim to gbpimport-dsc.
