Debian packaging for parallel
-----------------------------

A quick summary of how one can update the Debian packaging of parallel is
to, assuming that one already has the appropriate build-dependencies,
`devscripts`, `pristine-tar`, and `git-buildpackage` installed:

    gbp-clone --all https://github.com/rbrito/pkg-parallel
    cd pkg-parallel
    gbp import-orig --pristine-tar --uscan
    fbp dch -S -a
    [ Make here some adaptations, like updating debian/patches, if needed ]
    gbp buildpackage -us -uc  # create a test build
    git-buildpackage --git-pristine-tar

    # Final (source only) package creation:

    gbp dch -R -a
    gbp buildpackage -S -k8F930BD1934C3E2140A258790747BD39BCFCAAAA --git-tag

    # Push the results to the repositories:
    git push --all; git push --tags
    git push git@salsa.debian.org:debian/parallel.git --all; git push git@salsa.debian.org:debian/parallel.git --tags
    dput ftp-master parallel*changes

These are the important steps and may need to be changed according to
deviations, say, in the release process of upstream releases (e.g., if
upstream changes the location where the tarballs reside).
