Hello, I want to make an upload for xom package with a couple of fixes. I want to use its packaging repository on salsa [1], but it is in somewhat diverged state. The newest Debian version of xom is 1.2.10-1.1, but repository on salsa has 1.2.10-1 (note incorrect git tag) plus a pair of commits on top of that which are not included in 1.2.10-1.1. To fix the history on salsa these two commits have to be discarded and changes of 1.2.10-1.1 have to be applied on top of clean 1.2.10-1. However, I do not know how to do that without force-pushing (forbidden on a protected branch).
Any ideas how to solve this? [1] https://salsa.debian.org/java-team/xom Best, Andrius
