Sorry, I'm not sure what you are talking about. There are a few more than 10 git commits on this repo: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/mptcpd > That is a problem narrowly for this release because the git lacks a > pristine-tar branch, but more generally it is socially a problem that > history has been ditched. I guess it was not done on purpose. Sorry, I guess I'm missing something, because there is a "pristine-tar" branch: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/mptcpd/-/commits/pristine-tar/?ref_type=heads When I created the repo, I tried to have all previous versions being included in this branch. I remembered it was not that easy, but did I do something wrong? > Do you have any knowledge of past source tracking? > > I have experience in reconstructing a git for packaging purposes, which > can be a bit tricky to get right - but I need something to work with... Sorry, I'm a bit lost :) The Salsa repo should be synced with what has been done upstreamed in this GitHub repository: https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcpd There are 12 versions, a few hundreds of commits (because it was decided to squash the history per topic). But everything is there, including the tarballs. Should I join you on IRC / Matrix to discuss that? Cheers, Matt -- Sponsored by the NGI0 Core fund.
