Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.7.1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
i would like to add some filters to gbp-import-orig that exclude some
directories in the root of the package-dir, but not in subfolder.
e.g., my upstream layout is like the following (with foo-1.0 being stripped
away):
foo-1.0/foo/non-free-files.txt
foo-1.0/bar/foo/free-files.txt
so i would like to create a filter that only matches the first directory, but
not the second.
i tried "foo/*", but this will strip both ./foo/ and ./bar/foo/;
so i tried "/foo/*" and "./foo/*", but this stripped neither ./foo/ nor
./bar/foo;
i got desparate and tried "/*/foo/" (assuming that the filters are applied
before the 'foo-1.0' part is stripped away), but that didn't help either.
i even tried to use regular expressions (e.g. "^foo/.*/") without success.
so i believe that gbp-import-orig currently cannot handle stripping of rooted
directories.
please add this functionality!
