Package: dgit Version: 9.12 Severity: normal Hi,
As discussed on IRC, I had a slightly bad experience using dgit to prepare an NMU for f2fs-tools. paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs $ dgit clone f2fs-tools canonical suite name for unstable is sid fetching existing git history last upload to archive: NO git hash using existing f2fs-tools_1.11.0.orig.tar.gz using existing f2fs-tools_1.11.0-1.1.debian.tar.xz dpkg-source: info: extracting f2fs-tools in f2fs-tools-1.11.0 dpkg-source: info: unpacking f2fs-tools_1.11.0.orig.tar.gz dpkg-source: info: unpacking f2fs-tools_1.11.0-1.1.debian.tar.xz synthesised git commit from .dsc 1.11.0-1.1 Version actually in archive: 1.11.0-1.1 (older) Last version pushed with dgit: 1.12.0-1 (newer or same) Perhaps the upload is stuck in incoming. Using the version from git. HEAD is now at fa204f3 Declare fast forward from 1.11.0-1.1 dgit ok: ready for work in f2fs-tools So apparently the previous upload was done with dgit, cool.... Unless that previous upload included a new upstream version and the upload went through new and the upload was rejected... paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs $ cd f2fs-tools paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs/f2fs-tools $ dch -i "bla" paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs/f2fs-tools $ dch -r "" paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs/f2fs-tools $ git commit -m"Commit changelog" debian/changelog [dgit/sid 003cb83] Commit changelog 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs/f2fs-tools $ dgit build-source Format `3.0 (quilt)', need to check/update patch stack gzip: warning: GZIP environment variable is deprecated; use an alias or script dgit: split brain (separate dgit view) may be needed (--quilt=unapplied). examining quilt state (multiple patches, unapplied mode) dpkg-source: error: missing orig.tar or debian.tar file in v2.0 source package dgit: failed command: sh -ec 'exec dpkg-source --no-check --skip-patches -x fake.dsc >/dev/null' dgit: error: subprocess failed with error exit status 255 The new upsteam tar ball is missing, and as the upload was rejected, I don't know where to obtain that tar ball. Once I discovered the problem (I had initially missed the "Perhaps the upload is stuck in incoming. Using the version from git." part), it would have helped if it was clear to me where to start working if I wanted to have the version in unstable. In the end I resorted to paul@mulciber ~/packages/bugs $ dgit clone f2fs-tools testing as unstable and testing have the same version, but that doesn't work if unstable and testing don't have the same version.
