Notes for svn-buildpackage
==========================

svn-inject, svn-upgrade and svn-buildpackage are documented in their
manpage and in the HOWTO manual. Please refer to them for further information.

Overview for Subversion users:
-----------------------------

The recommended repository layouts are described in the PRINCIPLES
file. This schemes are auto-detected by svn-... programs. However, you can use
any type of SVN repositories as long as they don't need any special command to
be dealt with. Specify your URLs manually in .svn/deb-layout in the working
directory if the tools didn't detect them. See CONFIG file for details.

Temporary build directories are created under build-area/PACKAGE and
orig.tar.gz files are archived in tarballs/.

"packageNAME/function" is the preferred repository layout; svn-inject
creates a such structure.

svn-upgrade and svn-buildpackage look for the "mergeWithUpstream"
property of the debian directory, which means that the files in the
trunk directory are added to pre-extracted upstream source tarball at
build time. This is practical for large packages that keep only debian
and few modifications of upstream files under revision control.
svn-inject with -o option will create the tree of such type.
