.SH NAME
dupload \- Debian package upload tool
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBdupload\fR [\fIoptions\fR...] [\fIchanges-file\fR|\fIdirectory\fR...]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBdupload\fR is a tool that enables people maintaining Debian packages to
easily upload them to a Debian repository.
.PP
\&\fBdupload\fR checks each non-option argument to find readable files or
directories. It parses the files as \fI.changes\fR files, or tries to find
such files in the given directories.
.PP
\&\fBdupload\fR will warn if the name of the file does not end with
\&\fI.changes\fR. Further processing is done changing into the
directories of the changes files.
.PP
\&\fBdupload\fR tests the available checksums and size for each file listed in the \fI.changes\fR file,
and fails if it finds a mismatch. If all this goes well, \fBdupload\fR checks
if there is an \fI.upload\fR file with the basename of the \fI.changes\fR file.
If the file to be uploaded is recorded to have already been uploaded to the
specified host, it is skipped.
.PP
After the list of files to upload is finished, \fBdupload\fR tries to connect
to the server and upload. Each successfully uploaded file is recorded in the
\&\fI.upload\fR log file.
.PP
If all files of a package are processed, the \fI.changes\fR file is mailed to the
announcement address specified in the configuration file, see the
Announcement section for more details.
.SS "Upload methods"
.IX Subsection "Upload methods"
The default transfer method is \fBftp\fR.
Alternative methods are \fBhttp\fR, \fBhttps\fR, \fBscp\fR/SSH, \fBscpb\fR/SSH,
\&\fBrsync\fR/SSH and \fBcopy\fR.
.PP
If you are using an upload queue, use \fBftp\fR because it is fast.
If you are using an authenticated host, \fBalways\fR use \fBhttps\fR, or one of
\&\fBscp\fR or \fBrsync\fR via SSH, because \fBftp\fR transmits the password in clear
text.
.IP \fBftp\fR 2
.IX Item "ftp"
If no login (username) is defined in the configuration file,
\&\fBanonymous\fR is used.  The password is derived from your
login name and your hostname, which is common for anonymous FTP logins.
For anonymous logins only, you can provide the "password" in
the configuration file.
.Sp
For logins other than \fBanonymous\fR, you are asked for
the password.  For security reasons there is no way to supply it via
the command-line or the environment.
.IP "\fBhttp\fR (since 2.9.9) / \fBhttps\fR (since 2.9.9)" 2
.IX Item "http (since 2.9.9) / https (since 2.9.9)"
There is no default login nor password.
If you specify a login, a password will be fetched from \fBpasswordcmd\fR or
if that is not defined via the Secret Service interface, otherwise it will
be prompted.
.IP "\fBscp\fR (since 1.8) / \fBscpb\fR (since 1.17)" 2
.IX Item "scp (since 1.8) / scpb (since 1.17)"
The default login is delegated to SSH and its own configuration.
.Sp
The \fBscp\fR/SSH method only works properly if no password is required
(see \fBssh\fR(1)).
When you use \fBscp\fR, it is recommended to set the "method" keyword to
\&\fBscpb\fR, which will transfer all files in a batch.
.IP "\fBrsync\fR (since 2.4.1)" 2
.IX Item "rsync (since 2.4.1)"
The default login is delegated to SSH and its own configuration.
.IP "\fBcopy\fR (since 2.9.0)" 2
.IX Item "copy (since 2.9.0)"
The \fBcopy\fR method works by simply copying the files to another directory
in the local filesystem.
.SS Announcement
.IX Subsection "Announcement"
If the host has been configured to send announcement mails, the \fI.changes\fR
file will be sent to the specified addresses.
.PP
The contents of all the following files are prepended to the announcement
mail body, if present:
.IP \fIpackage\fR\fB.announce\fR 4
.IX Item "package.announce"
.PD 0
.IP \fIpackage\fR\fB_\fR\fIupstream-version\fR\fB.announce\fR 4
.IX Item "package_upstream-version.announce"
.IP \fIpackage\fR\fB_\fR\fIupstream-version\fR\fB\-\fR\fIrevision\fR\fB.announce\fR 4
.IX Item "package_upstream-version-revision.announce"
.PD
.PP
Where \fIupstream-version\fR and \fIrevision\fR are to be replaced with actual
version numbers.
For example, if your package is called \fBfoobar\fR, has upstream version 3.14,
and Debian revision 2:
.IP \(bu 2
If you only want the announcement to be made with only ONE upload,
you name it \fIfoobar_3.14\-2.announce\fR.
.IP \(bu 2
If you want it to be made with every upload of a particular upstream
version, name it \fIfoobar_3.14.announce\fR.
.IP \(bu 2
If you want it made with \fBevery\fR upload of a given package, name it
\&\fIfoobar.announce\fR.
.PP
By default, the announcement addresses are unset because dinstall sends
mails instead.
.SH OPTIONS
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-to\fR \fInickname\fR" 12
.IX Item "-t, --to nickname"
Upload to \fInickname\fR'd host.  \fInickname\fR is the key for doing lookups
in the config file. You can use the \fBdefault_host\fR configuration option
to specify a host without \fB\-\-to\fR.
.IP "\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-configfile\fR \fIfilename\fR" 12
.IX Item "-c, --configfile filename"
Read the file \fIfilename\fR as a configuration file, in addition to the global
configuration file.
.IP "\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-force\fR" 12
.IX Item "-f, --force"
Upload regardless of the transfers logged as already completed.
.IP "\fB\-k\fR, \fB\-\-keep\fR" 12
.IX Item "-k, --keep"

.Sp
For \fBscp\fR and \fBscpb\fR (since 2.10.2) a \fB\-v\fR per \fIlevel\fR is passed
to the \fBscp\fR command.

default implied for all hosts with the \fBdinstall_runs\fR option set to 1.
.IP \fB\-\-mailonly\fR 12
.IX Item "--mailonly"
Acts as if \fB\-\-no\fR has been specified, but sends the announcements,
unconditionally.
.IP \fB\-\-noarchive\fR 12
.IX Item "--noarchive"
Adds an \fBX\-No-Archive: yes\fR header so that the announcement will not be
