The source code for this package is maintained in git.
The primary upstream branch is here:
  https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git/secnet.git/

Upstream releases are announced here:
  https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/sgo-software-announce

There is no distinction between the upstream and Debian branches
at this time.  We don't maintain a Debian delta (patches), nor Debian
revision numbers.


Some items are included using git-subtree, notably subdirmk:

This designed to be "git-subtree"'d into one's package.  That
is the way the upstream package uses it.

It would be possible to make it a separate package and build-depend on
it, at the cost of some additional work.  The upside would be a very
small amount of disk space saving, and largely theoretical saving of
work in case of a need to do a security update for subdirmk (which
seems unlikely to be critical since it's build system software which
is designed to execute its input) - and that all only in the case
where a second package in Debian uses subdirmk.

We are deferring this work until subdirmk becomes more widely used.
