--- Begin Message ---Package: dgit Version: 0.14 Severity: normal This might be helpful with "1.0" source format that did not ignore those files by default but it's actively bad for newer formats (including "3.0 (native)") where using those options actually restrict the set of ignored files (.git is already ignored by default) The best solution would be to use this only for 1.0. Another solution is to use --extend-diff-ignore=\.dgit instead of "-i\.git". But there's no similar option for -I since that option can be specified multiple times (and it was expected that you'd use "-I -Ifoo" if you wanted to use both the default ignores and your own ones). If you don't want to conditionalize this, you can use "-i -I" to use dpkg's predefined list of stuff to ignore but then you impose to 1.0 packages the same set of ignore rules than to 3.0 (and it might break some of those 1.0 packages). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.10-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages dgit depends on: ii devscripts 2.13.3 ii dpkg-dev 1.17.2~20130905192814.199 ii git [git-core] 1:1.8.4~rc3-1 ii git-core 1:1.8.4~rc3-1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.17.2~20130905192814.199 ii libwww-perl 6.05-1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.18.1-3 ii realpath 1.18 Versions of packages dgit recommends: ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:6.2p2-6 Versions of packages dgit suggests: ii sbuild 0.64.0-1 -- no debconf information

In particular, for example, .gitignore should not be ignored if it exists. dgit's operating principle is that the git tree object corresponding to the git commit corresponds _exactly_ to the results of unpacking the source package. Therefore the only difference should be .git, which exists in working trees but not tree objects. Ian.
