Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.6.10 Severity: normal Hi,
upstream offers a newer version than I want to import, so I specify the older version. But git-import-orig nevertheless imports the most recent version. Steps to reproduce: $ git clone git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-e/libs/elementary.git $ cd elementary # in case that git moves on before you can look into this, checkout the right commit $ git reset --hard debian/1.7.7-3 # update changed upstream $ cat > debian/watch << EOF version=3 http://download.enlightenment.org/rel/libs/elementary/elementary-([\d\.]+)\.tar\.gz EOF $ git commit -a -m "update debian/watch" $ git fetch origin upstream:upstream pristine-tar:pristine-tar $ git-import-orig --uscan --upstream-version=1.8.5 --verbose gbp:info: Launching uscan... gbp:info: using ../elementary-1.9.0.tar.gz gbp:debug: ['git', 'rev-parse', '--show-cdup'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'rev-parse', '--is-bare-repository'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'symbolic-ref', 'HEAD'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'show-ref', 'refs/heads/master'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'show-ref', 'refs/heads/upstream'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'status', '--porcelain'] gbp:debug: tar ['-C', '../tmpB8ZPfG', '-a', '-xf', '../elementary-1.9.0.tar.gz'] [] gbp:debug: Unpacked '../elementary-1.9.0.tar.gz' to '../tmpB8ZPfG/elementary-1.9.0' gbp:info: Importing '../elementary-1.9.0.tar.gz' to branch 'upstream'... gbp:info: Source package is elementary gbp:info: Upstream version is 1.8.5 gbp:debug: ['git', 'add', '-f', '.'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'write-tree'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'rev-parse', '--quiet', '--verify', 'upstream'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'commit-tree', 'e2fb4b3992dda5a4b7bd21d90e5de3809e64dcfa', '-p', '91f53c6167d75346c92c2e72af94be70c914d4ec'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'update-ref', 'refs/heads/upstream', 'ccfa19ac7edf5d7c5f7786e5dcd431b8933b2e1c', '91f53c6167d75346c92c2e72af94be70c914d4ec'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'tag', '-m', 'Upstream version 1.8.5', 'upstream/1.8.5', 'ccfa19ac7edf5d7c5f7786e5dcd431b8933b2e1c'] gbp:info: Merging to 'master' gbp:debug: ['git', 'symbolic-ref', 'HEAD'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'show-ref', 'refs/heads/master'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'help', 'merge', '-m'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'merge', '--no-summary', '--no-edit', 'upstream/1.8.5'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'symbolic-ref', 'HEAD'] gbp:debug: ['git', 'show-ref', 'refs/heads/master'] gbp:debug: rm ['-rf', '../tmpB8ZPfG'] [] gbp:info: Successfully imported version 1.8.5 of ../elementary-1.9.0.tar.gz $ head -3 NEWS ================ Elementary 1.9.0 ================ So even though I specified to use version 1.8.5, version 1.9.0 was imported but named 1.8.5. If this is not a bug but a feature, then I request that this be mentioned in the man page. It might nevertheless be nice to have an option which allows me to import a specific upstream version with --uscan. cheers, josch -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.11-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages git-buildpackage depends on: ii devscripts 2.13.5 ii git 1:1.8.5.3-1 ii man-db 2.6.5-2 ii python 2.7.5-5 ii python-dateutil 1.5+dfsg-1 ii python-pkg-resources 2.2-1 Versions of packages git-buildpackage recommends: pn cowbuilder <none> ii pristine-tar 1.30 Versions of packages git-buildpackage suggests: pn python-notify <none> ii unzip 6.0-10 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
