Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.15.8.10 Severity: wishlist
Hi, When building a 1.0 format package from a git repository, lintian notes that ..git* files and dirs are not part of the orig.tar.gz source: > chrisc@xaphod:/var/cache/pbuilder/result$ lintian -Ivi --pedantic > angband_3.2.0-1_i386.changes > N: Setting up lab in /tmp/esv0j1oUBP ... > N: Processing 3 packages... > N: ---- > N: Processing changes file angband_3.2.0-1_i386 (version 1:3.2.0-1) ... > N: ---- > N: Processing source package angband (version 1:3.2.0-1) ... > P: angband source: > direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system .gitmodules and 7 more IMHO it would be very helpful if anything beginning with .git was ignored, either by default or when dpkg-buildpackage is invoked with the -i option.
