Generally by not running debian/rules clean in my source repository or, if so, running git reset --hard afterwards. Yes, it's not particularly appealing, but it's better than the alternatives: not regenerating upstream files that are actually build products, not having debian/rules clean put the source package back into a functionally equivalent state as before the build, or having to munging the upstream tarball extensively. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
