Source: base-files Severity: wishlist It would be great if you could maintain base-files in a VCS such as git on salsa.d.o. If you would like to do that, please import the existing source packages on snapshot.d.o into the VCS repository first.
One option for importing the old source packages is gbp: $ git init $ gbp import-dscs --debsnap base-files If you have a slow network connection you can also download all the files on lw08.debian.org, which is close to snapshot.d.o: $ ssh lw08.debian.org -tt debsnap -v base-files $ scp -r lw08.debian.org:source-base-files . $ mkdir base-files $ cd base-files $ git init $ gbp import-dscs ../source-base-files/*.dsc I'm not sure if gbp will automatically understand the correct branch structure for the package based on the stable-pu updates, but if it does not you can use the second method and manually do the branching. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
