I took a look on bug, but it is not clear to me, whether is considered problem. To me, it would me useful to have debian/ directories separate, to simplify monitoring what is going on (unpushed changed, unpulled changes, new upstream releases). > I belive, main point is this line: > I'll be improving the error message for this, as it seems to be > confusing. Either way, it would be great to make this limitaion explicit in error message. -- Best regards, Dmitry Bogatov <kact...@gnu.org>, Free Software supporter, esperantisto and netiquette guardian.
