Thanks for your effort. Unfortunately something is still wrong, because there is a debian/ directory on the upstream branch. If you are tired of rewriting the git history, I could do it myself. But I think it is more valuable to you if you learn how to do it. Please let me know. > As an aside : Is there some discussion as to why this is an option, > rather than the default? I don’t know. However you can put the following in ~/.gbp.conf (as I do): [DEFAULT] pristine-tar = True (then it becomes possible to override this by passing --git-no-pristine-tar to "gbp buildpackage", should you have a good reason for doing so). Best, P.S.: please don’t top-post. -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Sébastien Villemot ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian Developer ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ http://sebastien.villemot.name ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ http://www.debian.org
