initial import

PACKAGE=$(basename ` pwd`) # replace with your package name
cd ${PACKAGE}
svn list "svn+ssh://${USER}-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/"
debuild clean
svn import debian "svn+ssh://${USER}-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/${PACKAGE}/debian"
svn mkdir "svn+ssh://${USER]-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/tags/${PACKAGE}"
svn mkdir "svn+ssh://${USER}-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/branches/${PACKAGE}"

initial import, the svn-inject way

This way is much easier and takes care of a lot of small details. Please first check that:

  • the debian diff is only within debian/ (with lsdiff)

  • you have added your alioth login in your .ssh/config file, as in

Host alioth.debian.org
        User ewl-guest

The part about the login is important as it makes it much easier for other people to work on the package you imported. It also saves you from all the ewl-guest@ in the URLS.Then, import with the following command:

svn-inject -o -l 2  $PACKAGE.dsc svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/

This takes care of all the small details of importing (in particular setting the mergeWithUpstream property, but also many other details.

working, updating, committing

svn checkout svn+ssh://ewl-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/${PACKAGE}
cd ${PACKAGE}
svn update
svn add DIR|FILE
svn commit

creating a tag

svn copy 'svn+ssh://ewl-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/${PACKAGE}' \
         'svn+ssh://ewl-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/tags/${PACKAGE}/RELEASE_1_2_2-8' \
        -m 'SOME COMMENT'

using svn-buildpackage

mkdir WORKINGDIR
cd WORKINGDIR
mkdir tarballs
cp .../*.orig.tar.gz tarballs
svn checkout svn+ssh://ewl-guest@svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/${PACKAGE}
cd ${PACKAGE}
svn propset mergeWithUpstream 1 debian
svn commit (svn update)
svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore -us -uc -rfakeroot
svn-buildpackage --svn-lintian -rfakeroot
svn-buildpackage --svn-tag -rfakeroot

Updating a package

rm ../*.gz
uscan --no-symlink
svn-upgrade ../*.gz
rm ../*.gz

Then edit/test/commit as normal.

If uscan fails, update or create the debian/watch file.
