## README

Some basic instructions :

  Initial checkout :

    svn co svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/dists/trunk

  Updating a checked out repository :

    svn up (in the directory of the repository)

  Checkin in changes :

    svn ci (in the directory of the repository)

  Adding files :

    svn add <file or dir name>

  Creating dirs :

    svn mkdir <newdir>

  Moving files or dirs :

    svn mv <oldname> <newname>

  Tagging after an upload :

    source:
        svn mkdir svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/tags/kernel/source/kernel-source-2.6.11-2.6.11
        svn cp svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/trunk/kernel/source/kernel-source-2.6.11-2.6.11 svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/tags/kernel/source/kernel-source-2.6.11-2.6.11/2.6.11-1

    powerpc:
        svn cp svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/trunk/kernel/powerpc \
    	 svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/tags/kernel/powerpc/2.6.7-3

    i386:
    	svn mkdir svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/tags/kernel/i386/kernel-image-2.6.11-i386-2.6.11
	svn cp svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/trunk/kernel/i386/kernel-image-2.6.11-i386-2.6.11 svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/tags/kernel/i386/kernel-image-2.6.11-i386-2.6.11/2.6.11-1
	svn cp svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/trunk/kernel/i386/kernel-latest-2.6-i386  svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/tags/kernel/i386/kernel-latest-2.6-i386/100

  Branching :

    svn cp svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/trunk/kernel/powerpc
  	 svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/branches/kernel/powerpc/mybranch

  Exporting before an upload :

    svn export svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/kernel/trunk/kernel/powerpc \
    	/path/to/build/dir

Upload procedure :

  1) Change the changelog entry from UNRELEASED to unstable.
  2) export the package.
  3) go into the exported dir and do the build
  4) upload.
  5) checkin the changes.
  6) tag the package.

Changelog practice :

  When making a change in a package, without having it uploaded,
  please put the changelog entry to UNRELEASED instead of unstable.
  When doing the upload, this UNRELEASED tag has to be changed back
  to unstable.  Additionally, the trailer line should be updated (the
  line containing the name of the person doing the upload and the
  date). But then, dch takes care of this for you :)
