Hello. With Debian10 released, a new development cycle begins for Ada packages in Debian.
Most packages make their packaging public via the Monotone Version Control System instance running on the Debian-France server. The Monotone tool is undermaintained in Debian, and no more available in the stable distribution. A migration seems necessary. The Debian infrastructure provides git hosting on salsa.debian.org. I suggest that remaining packages move from Monotone/www.ada-france.org to git/salsa.debian.org. https://wiki.debian.org/GitPackagingSurvey shows that no consensus exists yet about a one-size-fits-all workflow, or even branch structure. I suggest * the "unapplied" branch structure, because it is flexible and promising competitors are not mature enough for now. * upstream tarballs, because Ada upstreams often feel more responsible for consistent tarballs than for git tags or releases. For branch names, I see no reason to diverge from the well-thought recommendations at https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep14. Any idea is welcome.
