NAME

dbs-edit-patch - Edit a DBS patch

SYNOPSIS

dbs-edit-patch [options] patch
dbs-edit-patch -h|--help

DESCRIPTION

dbs-edit-patch is script to generate or modify patches for Debian source-packages in DBS format.

OPTIONS

-h, --help
Show summary of options.
-t dir, --tmpdir=dir
Directory for the temporary files, default is /tmp or if set $TMP.
-s dir, --sourcedir=dir
Top level directory of the debian-package source-tree, default is the present working directory.
-P dir, --sourcepatchdir=dir
Directory containing upstream patches.
-T dir, --sourcetardir=dir
Directory containing the upstream tarball.
-p level, --strip=level
Striplevel -p of patch (Option -p of diff(1)), accepted values are 0 and 1, default is 0.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

TMP
Sets the directory for the temporary files, can be overridden with -t dir.

debian/vars

dbs-edit-patch will automatically use variables defined in the optional debian/vars file.

When a file debian/vars.in exists and debian/vars either does not exist or is older than any of the following files: debian/vars.in, debian/changelog, debian/rules or debian/control, then dbs-edit-patch will try updating the vars file by running the following command

 make -f debian/rules -W debian/vars.in debian/vars
 

EXAMPLES

Edit the 021_debian patch of Heimdal:
 ~/heimdal-0.3d> dbs-edit-patch -t/tmp 021_debian
 Extracting source heimdal-0.3d.tar.gz ... successful.
 Applying patch 001_replay ... successful.
 etc.
 Copying heimdal-0.3d to heimdal-0.3d-old ... successful.
 Applying patch 021_debian ... successful.
 

Edit files under /tmp/021_debian/heimdal-0.3d as required, then put a short description into /tmp/021_debian/patch-description if desired, and finally execute /tmp/021_debian/dbs-update-patch to save the results.

Technical note: dbs-edit-patch extracts all patches before 021_debian into /tmp/021_debian/heimdal-0.3d, copies the result to /tmp/021_debian/heimdal-0.3d-old, and applies the last patch 021_debian (if it exists). Also, it creates a shell script which will create the diff between the old and new directories:

 ~/heimdal-0.3d> ls -la /tmp/021_debian
 total 12
 -rwxr-xr-x    1 bam      users         112 Jan 31 13:31 dbs-update-patch*

 #!/bin/sh -e
 cd "/tmp/021_debian"
 HOOK_DIR="/usr/src/heimdal/debian/dbs-hooks"
 test -d "$HOOK_DIR" && run-parts "$HOOK_DIR" --arg update-patch-prediff
 find -name "*.bak" -print0 | xargs -0 --no-run-if-empty rm
 find -name "*~" -print0 | xargs -0 --no-run-if-empty rm
 : > new_patch
 test ! -e patch-description || cp patch-description new_patch
 diff -ruN heimdal\-0.3d\-old heimdal\-0.3d >> new_patch || test $? -eq 1
 mv new_patch  /usr/src/heimdal/debian/patches/021_debian
 test -d "$HOOK_DIR" && run-parts "$HOOK_DIR" --arg update-patch-postdiff
