Hi all, I'm the package author and maintainer; let me know if I can help. It seems that debian will need to install delta with an executable name other than "delta" since that is taken: if so I suggest the installed executable name should be "git-delta", since that is the proposed name of the package (and is the name of the package in other package repositories). It's a little unfortunate, since the tool also works on unified diff (and subversion, and mercurial) input, but I'm not aware of a better solution.
Linking another debian packaging ticket (now archived) for getting delta into debian from last year: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=946213 Dan On Sat, 10 Oct 2020 08:06:01 +0000 Franklin Yu <frankli...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Note that the author already have a packaging script: > > https://github.com/dandavison/delta/blob/3790009a45cc9fc99bb7ae7249e756b393d35eda/etc/ci/before_deploy.sh > > This script generates some basic Debian files.
