Package: dgit Severity: wishlist As usual, I am not sure I understand dgit right, but it seems to me that dgit should add the existing git remote for a package if it already exists, and use that to start working on the said package.
In my case, I was considering doing an NMU for pavucontrol, so I did: $ dgit clone pavucontrol Warning: Permanently added the RSA host key for IP address '2001:41c8:1000:21::21:11' to the list of known hosts. canonical suite name for unstable is sid starting new git history downloading http://ftp.debian.org/debian//pool/main/p/pavucontrol/pavucontrol_1.0-1.dsc... last upload to archive has NO git hash dget: retrieving http://ftp.debian.org/debian//pool/main/p/pavucontrol/pavucontrol_1.0-1.dsc % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 1443 100 1443 0 0 783 0 0:00:01 0:00:01 --:--:-- 784 dget: retrieving http://ftp.debian.org/debian//pool/main/p/pavucontrol/pavucontrol_1.0.orig.tar.gz % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 232k 100 232k 0 0 259k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 259k dget: retrieving http://ftp.debian.org/debian//pool/main/p/pavucontrol/pavucontrol_1.0-1.diff.gz % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 3808 100 3808 0 0 16078 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 16067 pavucontrol_1.0-1.dsc: Good signature found validating pavucontrol_1.0.orig.tar.gz validating pavucontrol_1.0-1.diff.gz All files validated successfully. dpkg-source: info: extraction de pavucontrol dans pavucontrol-1.0 dpkg-source: info: extraction de pavucontrol_1.0.orig.tar.gz dpkg-source: info: mise en place de pavucontrol_1.0-1.diff.gz synthesised git commit from .dsc 1.0-1 HEAD est maintenant à 9d76bdf dgit ok: ready for work in pavucontrol $ cd pavucontrol/ $ git remote -v dgit origin git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/dgit-repos/repos/pavucontrol.git (fetch) origin git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/dgit-repos/repos/pavucontrol.git (push) And I stopped there. I was expecting origin to be the existing repo: $ grep Vcs debian/control Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-pulseaudio/pavucontrol.git Vcs-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-pulseaudio/pavucontrol.git Is it me that's confused? It seems to me that pushing to that dgit repo would create a dupe, and worse, ignore the existing package's history... -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
