Hi list, Getting there... * ssh is all set, * I created the repository ( http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/dwv-orthanc-plugin.git) using the setup-repository script, * I had troubles with uscan and the watch file, uscan stops, complaining about the missing changelog file so I downloaded the tar.gz manually from github, * I ran a: git import-orig --pristine-tar /path/to/dwv-orthanc-plugin-0.3.0.tar.gz * and pushed it all on the server
