DESCRIPTION¶

git-import-dsc imports a Debian source package into a Git repository, notes the package version in the commit logs, and commits the change. All information, including package name, version, Debian diffs, and upstream source is automatically detected from the source package.

OPTIONS¶

--upstream-branch=branch_name

The branch in the Git repository the upstream sources are put onto. Default is upstream.

--debian-branch=branch_name

The branch in the Git repository the debian sources are put onto. Default is master.

--verbose

-v

verbose execution

--[no-]sign-tags

GPG sign all created tags

--keyid=gpg-keyid

use this keyid for gpg signing tags

--debian-tag=tag-format

use this tag format when tagging Debian versions, default is debian/%(version)s

--upstream-tag=tag-format

--filter=pattern

filter out files glob-matching pattern. Can be given multiple times.

--pristine-tar
