Package: git-dpm Version: 0.9.1-1 Severity: wishlist It looks git-dpm will only create the upstream tag with "git-dpm tag" and this operation can only be called when you want to tag a released package.
However when I work on a new upstream release, it might take some time until the new release is ready for release and it would be nice if I the upstream/<version> tag was already available for use in various git commands (even though I can also use the tip of the corresponding upstream branch). Furthermore since git-dpm offers no command to build & tag the package it looks like that I will keep using "gbp buildpackage" to build my package from a clean state and its --git-tag option will only create the tag for the package release, not for the upstream release. The net result is that I will likely forget to run "git-dpm tag" and I will miss the upstream tags. So it would be nice if the upstream tags could be created sooner as part of "git-dpm import-new-upstream". -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers squeeze-lts APT policy: (500, 'squeeze-lts'), (500, 'oldoldstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages git-dpm depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.18.3 ii git 1:2.6.1-1 Versions of packages git-dpm recommends: ii bzip2 1.0.6-8 ii devscripts 2.15.9 ii sensible-utils 0.0.9 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2.1 Versions of packages git-dpm suggests: ii pristine-tar 1.33 ii sharutils 1:4.15.2-1 -- no debconf information
