Dash sources for Debian
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The dash Debian package sources are available through git, and
|
||||
through 'apt-get source dash'. Getting the sources through git
|
||||
should be preferred:
|
||||
|
||||
# apt-get install git # if not yet done
|
||||
|
||||
$ git clone https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dash.git
|
||||
$ cd dash
|
||||
|
||||
After cloning the repository, you have checked out the debian/master
|
||||
branch, ready to be used by dpkg-buildpackage, e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
$ dpkg-buildpackage -i -uc -us
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to make changes in the ./debian/ subdirectory, this is the
|
||||
correct branch to work on. After making changes, document them in
|
||||
debian/changelog, and commit through 'git add' and 'git commit', or 'git
|
||||
commit -a', or similar. If you think the changes should be incorporated
|
||||
into the standard Debian package, create the patch[es] through 'git
|
||||
format-patch', and send them to the Debian Bug Tracking System, e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
$ vi debian/rules
|
||||
$ debchange -pi
|
||||
$ git commit -a
|
||||
$ git format-patch HEAD^
|
||||
|
||||
This package uses 3.0 (quilt) format, which means patches to the upstream
|
||||
sources are stored in debian/patches, and are automatically applied by
|
||||
dpkg-source and dpkg-buildpackage.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to make changes to the upstream dash sources, be aware that
|
||||
debian/master branch doesn't have patches applied to the upstream sources.
|
||||
Should you prefer working with git to manage patches rather than quilt,
|
||||
you need to fetch a branch with patches applied from dgit.
|
||||
|
||||
$ dgit fetch
|
||||
|
||||
The dgit/sid branch holds patches on top of the current release version
|
||||
that is packaged for Debian unstable. For each release, there are
|
||||
two tags: debian/* for patches-unappliedn, archive/debian/* for
|
||||
patches-applied.
|
||||
|
||||
After checking out the dgit/sid branch, make the desired changes
|
||||
to the upstream sources, and commit them. To integrate the changes into
|
||||
the Debian package, extract these changes, and change to the debian/master
|
||||
branch.
|
||||
|
||||
$ git format-patch dgit/dgit/sid..dgit/sid
|
||||
$ git checkout debian/master
|
||||
|
||||
Now move the extracted patches into the debian/patches/ directory, add the
|
||||
patch to the debian/patches/series, add a meaningful message to
|
||||
debian/changelog, and commit the changes to the debian/master branch
|
||||
|
||||
$ mv *.patch debian/patches/
|
||||
$ git add debian/patches
|
||||
$ debchange -pi
|
||||
$ git add debian/changelog
|
||||
$ git commit
|
||||
|
||||
Again, if you think the changes should be incorporated into the standard
|
||||
Debian package, create the patch[es] from the debian/master branch through
|
||||
'git format-patch', send them to the Debian Bug Tracking System.
|
||||
|
||||
As an addition to sending patches to the Debian Bug Tracking System, it is
|
||||
also possible to put your changes in a Git branch on Salsa and issue a pull
|
||||
request, mentioning that in your bug report.
|
||||
|
||||
Uploading the package
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Uploads are currently handled by dgit. After you have prepared your changes, run:
|
||||
|
||||
dgit --gbp build-source
|
||||
|
||||
This will build .dsc and _source.changes in the directory above. When done, run:
|
||||
|
||||
dgit --gbp push
|
||||
|
||||
It will verify the source package, refresh the dgit branch, sign the source package,
|
||||
upload it to the Debian archive, create signed tags for the newly uploaded release,
|
||||
and push the dgit branch with tags to the dgit server.
