debian branches #1

Closed ghost closed 12 years ago

ghost commented 12 years ago

Hi,

I have created two branches, debian-debian and debian-upstream, to allow easy building of .deb packages for vdr-plugin-dvbapi using git-buildpackage.

I've pushed the two branches here:

https://github.com/oldmanuk/vdr-plugin-dvbapi

I was wondering if you'd be willing to clone the branches into the master repository, so that others may benefit, and I can submit pull requests in the future to update the debian packaging scripts.

Cheers oldman

Hi! I was also considering adding a debian subdirectory for packaging. I have nothing against it. If you're willing to maintain it, I'll be grateful for this! :) Please create a pull request for the initial 'debian' subdirectory import (rebased on top of the current version).

@manio using branches in the way I have is a sort of 'standard' way of storing the packaging scripts. Because .debs are generally only ever built for 'released' versions, rather than a snapshot in time of the git repo.

See http://lpenz.github.com/articles/debgit/index.html for details

The idea then is that whenever you git tag a new release version, I would take the .tar.gz from the github download and generate a new .deb off it.

Ok I think I've got the idea. I cloned your branches to my repo. Please check it and see if it is correct.
