In principle yes. A `ssh alioth.debian.org` before might show any potential problems - specifically if something occures the '-v' option might be enlightening. > When you say 'use the http://git.debian.org/git/debian-med', do you mean > create a dwvexplorer folder in the debian-med repo?

Its advisable to use the script /git/debian-med/setup-repository which is mentioned in the link above. I can not give an educated answer about submodules since I never used this and thus can not give proper advise. I personally strongly relay on the workflow to obtain a tarball from a github first using the template for a watch file given here: https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/package_template/watch?view=markup Simply remove everything except version=3 https://github.com/#GITHUBUSER#/#PACKAGE#/releases .*/archive/#PREFIX#(\d[\d.-]+)\.(?:tar(?:\.gz|\.bz2)?|tgz) fill in the placeholders and fetch a tarball using uscan --verbose --force-download Once you have the tarball you can import it into the Debian packaging Git repository using git import-orig --pristine-tar /path/to/package_version.orig.tar.gz I know that from a Git perspective it sounds a bit cumbersome since you have the code in Git yet. However, the idea behind this is that you are maintaining *packaging* code here - not upstream code - and this approach also works for all kind of software (even what is not (yet ;-)) maintained in Git). I hope that this advise is clear enouth and does not tweak your mind too much from an upstream maintainers perspective on his own source code.
