OK. That's fine. The job of uscan is to create a source tarball. But that's all and nothing else. Uscan is older than git. ;-) > But the files under "Apps/VRRender/doc" aren't removed if I try to get the > sources with : > > debcheckout --git-track='*' > git+ssh://[email protected]/git/debian-med/fw4spl.git > > This feels me logical, :-) > but is there any way to remove them without updating the upstream and > pristine-tar branches ? > By example, can I remove the file from the d/rules ? I do not think so. If you would to the information in pristine-tar becomes invalidated since the repository contains something else than what is stored in pristine-tar. The only way I know is to do again git import-orig --pristine-tar /path/to/new_tarball_version.orig.tar.gz To my experience the content of the pristine-tar branch is properly updated that way even if you get some warnings. If you might face some trouble with this step please post this here. Kind regards and thanks for your work on fw4spl Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
