General info
============
The upstream sources are at:
https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped
However this isn't directly published to NPM. Instead, they have some scripts
to auto-generate package.json for each package etc:
https://github.com/Microsoft/types-publisher
The extra data generated is both small and human-readable, so trying to package
this generator would really be a waste of effort for Debian. Therefore, the
get-orig-source.sh shell script just downloads the NPM packages and extracts
them directly.
Updating checklist
==================
- Check that "small and human-readable" still holds for the imported packages.
If not, we will have to figure out a proper solution for Debian.
In particular, check that they don't e.g. start bundling pre-built javascript
into this package; `find . -type f -name '*.js'` should output nothing.
- Update d/control with the new contents of packages.list.
- Run `grep license */package.json` and update d/copyright as necessary.
