gbp

A system to integrate the Debian package build system with Git. More information: http://honk.sigxcpu.org/projects/git-buildpackage/manual-html/gbp.html.

Convert an existing Debian package to gbp:

gbp import-dsc {{path/to/package.dsc}}

Build the package in the current directory using the default builder (debuild):

gbp buildpackage -jauto -us -uc

Build a package in a pbuilder environment for Debian Bullseye:

DIST={{bullseye}} ARCH={{amd64}} gbp buildpackage -jauto -us -uc --git-builder={{git-pbuilder}}

Specify a package to be a source-only upload in the .changes file (see https://wiki.debian.org/SourceOnlyUpload):

gbp buildpackage -jauto -us -uc --changes-options={{-S}}

Import a new upstream release:

gbp import-orig --pristine-tar {{path/to/package.tar.gz}}
