You need the tarball of course, which you can obtain via origtargz. The tarball is expected to be found at the location specified in tarball_dir in /etc/git- buildpackage/gbp.conf, ~/.gbp.conf or given via command line paramter. You can also use the command line to run origtargz: gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/ruby-html-proofer cd ruby-html-proofer gbp buildpackage --git-preexport="origtargz -dt" --git-tarball-dir=../ \ --git-builder="sbuild -v -As -d unstable" \ --git-export-dir=../build-area/ > (maybe there is a doc or wiki somewhere about this ?) It is not yet very well documented. HTH and regards, Daniel
