Subversion repository +------------------------ + +You can browse it only at: + +http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-kde/kde-extras/ + +To "checkout" the repository use these commands: + + $ svn co svn+ssh://${ALIOTH_USERNAME}@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-kde/kde-extras + +Authorized SSH keys are controlled at https://alioth.debian.org/account/ + +The repository layout is: + +- packagename/ +� � - trunk/ +� � - branches/ +� � - tags/ +��������- 0.7.2-1/ +��������- 0.7.2-2/ +��������- 0.7.2-2ubuntu1/ +��������- 0.7.2-2ubuntu2/ +��������- 0.7.2-2ubuntu3/ +��������- 0.8.0/ +��������... + +If only one version of the package is available at the time, development must +be made at trunk/ dir, copying the dir to tags/'pkg-version' each time a new +release is made. + +When, at some point, the need to have two different versions at the same time +arises (for example, if we need a version to be in unstable and a different one +to be in experimental), experimental development will be made in trunk/ and +if a new unstable package needs to be cooked, copying +tag/'latest_version_in_sid' to tag/'latest_version_in_sid'+1 will make the +trick. + +3. Using svn-buildpackage +-------------------------- + +Packages with an upstream tarball will require you to set the mergeWithUpstream +property first (from the package root) so that svn-buildpackage will look for +the .orig.tar.gz in the ../tarballs directory. + + % svn propset mergeWithUpstream 1 debian + +Please note that this only works for packages which have only the debian/ +directory committed. Consequently, you must use CDBS's simple-patchsys.mk or +dpatch to modify the upstream sources. + +After you have finished and committed your Debian patches via + + % svn commit [PACKAGE] + +as well as copying the orig.tar.gz to ../tarballs/ if necessary, you may build +your package with the following commands: + + % svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore-new -rfakeroot + +Please, don't commit tarballs/ or build-area/ directories to SVN. + +4. Tarballs and Build-area directories +------------------------------------ + +During pkg development before uploaded to debian the tarballs can be found at: + + http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-extra/orig.tar.gz/ + +You need to place those dirs in the parent directory of the one from which you're +running svn-buildpackage. Usually this means placing tarballs/ and build-area/ dirs +in 'pkgname'/ dir, at the same level as trunk/ + +If you want to compile inside one version in tags/ dir, you'll need to place those +dirs inside that dir. Of course the easiest and cleanest way of doing it is +by making a symlink of those dirs inside tags/ dir. + +5. Using svn-inject +------------------- + +To inject a new package into the Debian KDE Extras svn archive you should use svn-inject(1) +as follows: + + svn-inject -o <package>.dsc svn+ssh://${ALIOTH_USERNAME}@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-kde/kde-extras + +Type in your alioth password a few hundred times :-) and your package should be +uploaded to the archive. Note you will also need to manually copy the +package.orig.tar.gz to your tarballs directory. The -o option is important as +this ensures that we 'Only keep modified files under SVN control' |
