Package: devscripts Version: 2.16.6 Severity: wishlist In Golang team we routinely use (very useful) Files-Excluded feature to get rid of bundled/vendored libraries.
Usually we can remove all 3rd party libs but occasionally few dependencies should be preserved in which case we have to maintain explicit long lists of exclusions like in following example: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/docker/docker.io.git/tree/debian/copyright?h=experimental IMHO it could be useful to be able to drop everything _but_ some folders: Files-Excluded: vendor/src/* Files-Excluded-Ignore: vendor/src/github.com/docker/notary hence I'd like to propose new "Files-Excluded-Ignore" field. -- All the best, Dmitry Smirnov GPG key : 4096R/53968D1B --- The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is. -- Winston Churchill
