Hi Bernhard,
your package bls-standalone was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[1]
initiative, which aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and
guide them through the workflow to solve them. The focus of this
initiative is on migrating packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to
familiarize newcomers with a consistent Git-based workflow.
Usually we file Intend To Salvage bugs[2] if we move some package from
no VCS to Salsa. Your package clearly does not fit the ITS criteria and
there are no bugs open that urgently need attention. However, the topic
of this package is Debian QA and its referencing bls from Paul Wise (in
CC). For this reason I consider it helpful to have the package
maintained on Salsa. There are quite a number of wishlist bugs and
having the repository of this native package in Git on Salsa might
motivate developers to contribute. (BTW, the bug tagged patch is fixed
in Git.)
Thus I've took the freedom to set up a repository within the QA team
space[3] to assist you with this initial setup. I'm not sure whether
this is the best final location - maybe debian/ team space is a good fit
as well and surely this can be moved. I hope this service helps make
the transition to using a Git repository on Salsa smoother and more
convenient for you. If your time might be limited and you have no
capacity to upload the change despite you agree with the new location
in principle I can happily do some team upload to announce the new
Vcs location (and close bug #988265).
Kind regards
Andreas.
