Hi!

I have noticed some time ago that vcswatch doesn't recognize the releases
of some of my Debian packages such as fs-uae [1]. As a result, it sees 67 commits since the last release, asking me to perform an upload.

However, I have already uploaded all changes and I'm apparently just missing the proper tags. I have always used gbp for git packaging and "gbp dch --auto" to finalize the changelog, apparently that's not sufficient.

Could anyone tell me what the proper gbp command is for creating the changelog entries for the new release including the proper tag. The gbp manual [1] mentions
Debian tags but it doesn't seem to explain how to create them.

And if I wanted to add the tags later manually and push them, what is the expected
format of the tags? Just "debian/$VERSION"?

Thanks,
Adrian

Yes.

Perfect, thank you. This answers all my questions.

I usually sign all the tags I've made (or gbp is doing for me e.g. while importing). So the tagging within a Debian branch looks then

$ ....
$ gbp tag --sign-tags
$ $(other further things to be done)

Yes, it seems that "gbp tag" is what I was missing.

I guess I can just add the missing tags with "git tag" unless gbp-tag
has a similar feature to add tags for historic commits.

I usually run "gbp dch -R -c" first, then build and upload the
package, and finalize with "gbp tag && gbp push".

Or run one of these to build the package and tag it on success:

gbp buildpackage --git-builder=sbuild --git-tag
gbp buildpackage -S --git-tag

This works for me.

md:~ $ cat ~/bin/git-debtag
#!/bin/sh -e

VER="$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field Version)"

if [ -z "$VER" ]; then
echo "Could not parse the changelog!" >&2
exit 1
fi

# mangle the Debian version number as required by git conventions
VER="$(echo "$VER" | sed -e 's/~/_/g' -e 's/:/%/g')"

if dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field Version | egrep -q -- '-[0-9]+$'; then
TAG="debian/$VER"
else
TAG="v$VER"
fi

export GIT_COMMITTER_DATE="$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field Date)"

exec git tag -s -m "version $VER" $TAG $1
