( I am in EST (EDT to be more precise) time zone which is GMT-4 atm. but my quick howto would be (and damn you knowing how to seduce -- meanwhile pushing few fixes ;) ) > cat .gbp.conf # my customization so I build in clean exported env [git-buildpackage] sign-tags = True # use this for more svn-buildpackage like bahaviour: export-dir = ../build-area/ tarball-dir = ../tarballs/ debcheckout vowpal-wabbit cd vowpal-wabbit git checkout --track origin/debian # added now -b debian to Vcs field, so will not be needed in the future uscan --verbose --rename # to fetch actually even fresher now release 7.7 for the final build (after I possibly did few fakeroot debian/rules binary to succeed ;) ) I usually use smth like git-buildpackage --git-verbose --git-ignore-new -uc -us --git-tag and that could be "it" in terms of how much git-buildpackage I use ;) But then you might spot the 'beauty' (and possibly a curse) of the git-buildpackage: $> git-buildpackage --git-verbose --git-ignore-new -uc -us --git-tag ... gbp:debug: Looking for orig tarball 'vowpal-wabbit_7.6.orig.tar.gz' at '../tarballs/' gbp:info: Orig tarball 'vowpal-wabbit_7.6.orig.tar.gz' not found at '../tarballs/' gbp:debug: ['git', 'ls-tree', '7.6'] gbp:info: vowpal-wabbit_7.6.orig.tar.gz does not exist, creating from '7.6' gbp:debug: Building upstream tarball with compression 'gzip -9' because we fetched upstream tarball for 7.7, not 7.6, git-buildpackage then generates one for you from the upstream release tag. It similarly happy generates ones from the snapshots (e.g. if version like 0.14.0+git393-g959e3e4-1 carries the treeish) -- which comes really handy for snapshot releases I do to test prior or after upstream releases. I guess that would be git-buildpackage 101 ;) -- Yaroslav O.
