Package: dgit Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: j...@debian.org dgit overrides the include lists for dpkg, causing packages to include additional .gitignore and similar files which dpkg-source -b will exclude.
This creates a significant hurdle to the NMU process and downstream distribution maintainers who have to figure out how to reduce the delta again, because in both cases, unrelated changes should not be present in the diff between the two uploads. Like I had to spend about 20 minutes or so today trying to figure out how to actually get that sorted out for a native package (I was trying -i all the time when I should have passed -I), in turn I discovered some other process issues but that's beside the point :D -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers noble APT policy: (500, 'noble'), (500, 'mantic-security') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.5.0-10-generic (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C.UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages dgit depends on: ii apt 2.7.6 ii ca-certificates 20230311ubuntu1 ii coreutils 9.1-1ubuntu2 ii curl 8.4.0-2ubuntu1 ii devscripts 2.23.6build1 ii dpkg-dev 1.22.1ubuntu2 ii dput 1.1.3ubuntu3 ii git [git-core] 1:2.40.1-1ubuntu1 ii git-buildpackage 0.9.32 ii libdpkg-perl 1.22.1ubuntu2 ii libjson-perl 4.10000-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.430-2 ii liblocale-gettext-perl 1.07-6 ii libtext-csv-perl 2.03-1 ii libtext-glob-perl 0.11-3 ii libtext-iconv-perl 1.7-8 pn libwww-curl-perl <none> ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.36.0-9ubuntu1 Versions of packages dgit recommends: ii distro-info-data 0.59 ii liburi-perl 5.21-1 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:9.4p1-1ubuntu1 Versions of packages dgit suggests: ii cowbuilder 0.89 ii pbuilder 0.231build1 ii sbuild 0.85.2ubuntu1 -- debian developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev ubuntu core developer i speak de, en
