Hi Mentors, I'm working on packaging prjtrellis[1] which has a git submodule that is required for building. My plan is to use dpkg-source's multi upstream tarball support to do this.
[1]: https://github.com/YosysHQ/prjtrellis I'm wondering if a) this is a good idea and 2) how to get uscan to download the precise commit referenced in the main package instead of the "latest" version. Is this even possible? I have a similar situation in my yosys package already (it has a berkeley-abc submodule) but since berkeley-abc is just a seperate package I just package the latest berkeley-abc commit and pray it doesn't diverge from what upstream's release uses too much. This is less than ideal obviously. Any input would be appreciated, --Daniel
