Here's my process for creating a backport from an existing pkg-go repository. I might be able to get some help to do this for the ~160 packages if you are willing to do the uploads. $ git clone $REPO $ git checkout -b debian/sid # initial branch is master $ git checkout -b debian/jessie-backports $ vi debian/gbp.conf # create new or update existing file [DEFAULT] pristine-tar = True debian-branch = debian/sid upstream-branch = master $ dch -i [Create new changelog entry with jessie-backports suite and ~bpo8+1 version suffix] $ git commit debian/changelog -m "Upload to backports" $ git tag debian/$VERSION~bpo+1 $ git push origin --tags master debian/sid debian/jessie-backports I'm not sure whether you want to delete the master branch and set debian-branch to debian/sid. I think this is what you have done in some of the other pkg-go repos you are maintainer for. Happy to go with whatever you think is right. What do you think? Tim.
