gbp

Building deb with gbp

Giving gbp buildpackage may not be enough to build a desired package. What if we need to exclude changes that come up while building for example .pc .gitignore etc and select desired upstream.

This command does all those things.

Ignore unwanted changes every time we build
Force create source tarball
Use the upstream provided at the prompt instead of the one in changelog

gbp buildpackage -S --git-ignore-new --git-force-create --git-upstream-tag=upstream/master
