I generally check the default gbp clone branch first! (apologies for the useless comment above...) My experience with using "gbp clone" just now was as follows: ---- $ gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/test-stages.git gbp:info: Cloning from 'https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/test-stages.git' nick on krusty in ~/d/s/g/debian-packaging $ cd test-stages nick on krusty in ~/d/s/g/d/test-stages (debian/unstable ) ---- $ gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-lsp-server.git gbp:info: Cloning from 'https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-lsp-server.git' nick on krusty in ~/d/s/g/debian-packaging $ cd python-lsp-server nick on krusty in ~/d/s/g/d/python-lsp-server (debian/master ) ---- $ gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/babelfish.git gbp:info: Cloning from 'https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/babelfish.git' nick on krusty in ~/d/s/g/debian-packaging $ cd babelfish nick on krusty in ~/d/s/g/d/babelfish (master ) ---- For each of those 3 repos, I seemingly end up on the default branch (which is different for each repo), which seems to be what the OP wants. That's the branch I would look in for a d/gbp.conf file. Additionally, the OP could also: i) inspect the repo on the salsa web interface and see which branch is marked as default ii) download the debian source package and inspect the gbp.conf file if present iii) check Peter's remote interrogation solution Cheers, Nick
