Package: devscripts Version: 2.25.19 Severity: minor File: /usr/bin/uscan Hi,
from debian-watch(5) I got the impression that I can have multiple stanzas in debian/watch, and wanted to use that for my package sniproxy which is deprecated upstream. I therefore want to be able to easily package git head while still being able to package a release should they do one again. But: Version: 5 Template: Github Owner: dlundquist Project: sniproxy Source: https://github.com/dlundquist/sniproxy.git Matching-Pattern: HEAD Mode: git Pretty: 0.6.1+git%cd Didn't work as expected. Since I went through like fifty versions with different information in debian/changelog, debian/gbp.conf, debian/watch etc, I cannot even say what exactly happened. I might investigate further if you indicate to me whether what I want to do is expected to work by the uscan authors. I think that the gbp configuration upstream-vcs-tag plays a role; i might need to set this for the first stanza to work, but it must be unset for the second stanza to work. And, of course, the current upstream version being hardcoded into the second stanza is suboptimal as well. Maybe this is also material for an advanced example in the manpages. Thanks for providing uscan.
