Package: debcargo Version: 2.5.0-3+b4 currently, if debian/foo.debcargo.hint exists, debcargo will leave debian/foo alone, as long as what it wanted to put in debian/foo matches debian/foo.debcargo.hint exactly.
However, in some circumstances a developer might want to entirely omit a file normally created by debcargo. The natural way to do this would be ship debian/foo.debcargo.hint and then *not ship* debian/foo at all. however, debcargo apparently sees the lack of debian/foo as an invitation to put its usual output in that file, even if debian/foo.debcargo.hint already exists. Instead, debcargo should not touch debian/foo at all if debian/foo.debcargo.hint exists. This allows a developer to declare that a file normally-generated by debcargo is entirely unwanted for this package/crate. --dkg
