If you want to add an official release, the following should do the trick : $ cd davmail/davmail.git $ uscan[ --force-download] # if you want to redownload the orig tar $ git-import-orig ../davmail_<version>.orig.tar.gz # import and commit new updtream version, and merge If you want to test a svn snpashot, the easiest way (IMHO) is to produce a patch and apply it to the git tree. With our recent exemple : $ cd davmail/davmail.svn $ svn update $ svn diff -r2174 src/java > ../patch $ cd ../davmail.git $ export QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches/ $ quilt import -P newer-upstream ../patch $ debuild -us -uc (this does not however fix the SMTP problem) Cheers, Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
