Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.21.22 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Hi Guillem,
I'm trying to use source/format 3.0 (git) to share a git-bundle of some WIP
packaging changes with another DD.
The package in question rubs dpkg-source the wrong way:
dpkg-source: error: git repository yosys uses submodules; this is not yet
supported
However the packaging repo itself doesn't have submodules initialized so I
don't think there is any real problem.
Looking at Dpkg/Source/Package/V3/Git.pm the check is simply based on the
presence of the .gitmodules config file.
I believe the correct logic to check if submodules are actually in-use in
the current repo would be to check if `git submodule status` returns
non-empty output.
What do you think?
Thanks,
--Daniel
