Packaging Conkeror for Debian
-----------------------------
Since end of 2008, the Conkeror Debian packaging code is hosted in the
upstream git repository at http://repo.or.cz/w/conkeror.git.
Generating the Debian source package from a git working copy is done
by the script in contrib/debian/update.sh. It
* pulls all changes from the git repository at
http://repo.or.cz/w/conkeror.git,
* renames the directory of the working copy according to the current
date and
* generates a source package which then includes everything except the
.git directories and the debian directories.
Packages built that way and released into the public (either as
official debian package or via some personal but public repository)
should be tagged in the git repository appropriately:
* Official Debian packages should be tagged "debian-$debian_package_version"
* Other package should be tagged "$person-$package_version"
* Tilde ("~") is not a valid character in Git tag names, so it
should be replaced by two dashes ("--") in tag names.
* Automatically built daily snapshots shouldn't be tagged in the
repository as they include enough information to determine what
state they're based upon.
That way we can always easily identify which state has been packaged.
