Package: git-dpm Version: 0.9.1-1 Severity: wishlist Hi Bernhard,
I recently converted a few of my repositories to use git-dpm, and found that for most of them, I repeated mostly the following: pristine-tar list (<- find latest upstream tarball) pristine-tar checkout long_name_of_latest_upstream.tarball (<- get it) git-dpm init long_name_of_latest_upstream.tarball (<- what I wanted to do) rm long_name_of_latest_upstream.tarball (<- clean the mess) Since the repositories already use an upstream branch with nice tags, and there already is a debian/changelog to see which upstream is the latest, it would be nice if "git-dpm init" would be enough : git-dpm could take care automagically of getting&using the tarball... just like "gbp buildpackage -S" does. Thanks, Snark on #debian-science
