Getting a fix into a package? What am I doing wrong?

2018-05-28 Thread Luke Diamand
Hi! A few years ago, in 2014, I submitted a bug fix for the git package to add git-p4: It's here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=773245 It seems to have just been forgotten and so far my attempts to get it unforgotten have failed. I'm obviously doing something terribly wrong
