2. Subversion repository
------------------------
You can browse it only at:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-kde/kde-extras/
To "checkout" the repository use these commands:
$ svn co svn+ssh://${ALIOTH_USERNAME}@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-kde/kde-extras
Authorized SSH keys are controlled at https://alioth.debian.org/account/
The repository layout is:
- packagename/
    - trunk/
    - branches/
    - tags/
        - 0.7.2-1/
        - 0.7.2-2/
        - 0.7.2-2ubuntu1/
        - 0.7.2-2ubuntu2/
        - 0.7.2-2ubuntu3/
        - 0.8.0/
        ...
If only one version of the package is available at the time, development must
be made at trunk/ dir, copying the dir to tags/'pkg-version' each time a new
release is made.
When, at some point, the need to have two different versions at the same time
arises (for example, if we need a version to be in unstable and a different one
to be in experimental), experimental development will be made in trunk/ and
if a new unstable package needs to be cooked, copying
tag/'latest_version_in_sid' to tag/'latest_version_in_sid'+1 will make the
trick.
3. Using svn-buildpackage
--------------------------
Packages with an upstream tarball will require you to set the mergeWithUpstream
property first (from the package root) so that svn-buildpackage will look for
the .orig.tar.gz in the ../tarballs directory.
% svn propset mergeWithUpstream 1 debian
Please note that this only works for packages which have only the debian/
directory committed. Consequently, you must use CDBS's simple-patchsys.mk or
dpatch to modify the upstream sources.
After you have finished and committed your Debian patches via
% svn commit [PACKAGE]
as well as copying the orig.tar.gz to ../tarballs/ if necessary, you may build
your package with the following commands:
% svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore-new -rfakeroot
Please, don't commit tarballs/ or build-area/ directories to SVN.
4. Tarballs and Build-area directories
------------------------------------
During pkg development before uploaded to debian the tarballs can be found at:
http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-extra/orig.tar.gz/
You need to place those dirs in the parent directory of the one from which you're
running svn-buildpackage. Usually this means placing tarballs/ and build-area/ dirs
in 'pkgname'/ dir, at the same level as trunk/
If you want to compile inside one version in tags/ dir, you'll need to place those
dirs inside that dir. Of course the easiest and cleanest way of doing it is
by making a symlink of those dirs inside tags/ dir.
5. Using svn-inject
-------------------
To inject a new package into the Debian KDE Extras svn archive you should use svn-inject(1)
as follows:
svn-inject -o <package>.dsc svn+ssh://${ALIOTH_USERNAME}@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-kde/kde-extras
Type in your alioth password a few hundred times :-) and your package should be
uploaded to the archive. Note you will also need to manually copy the
package.orig.tar.gz to your tarballs directory. The -o option is important as
this ensures that we 'Only keep modified files under SVN control'
