   Bug#1128473: Feature request: ask dgit t   
   20 Feb 26 08:50:01   
   
   From: simon@josefsson.org   
      
   Package: dgit   
   Version: 14.8   
   Severity: wishlist   
      
   The --quilt= autodetect feature is really powerful.  However I've   
   realized that there is no smoth way of using dgit to do what I would   
   prefer, which is:   
      
   1) Prefer --quilt=unapplied to hard-fail on upstream .gitignore diffs,   
   to allow me to notice the problem and fix it.   
      
   2) Only revert to --quilt=gbp if the last upload was made using it,   
   presumably because I intend for the repository to be incompatible with   
   --quilt=unapplied.   
      
   As far as I know, dgit is the only tool that makes me aware of   
   .gitignore diff's in packages.   
      
   Here is the actual problem I'm experiencing:   
      
   A) If I don't supply a --quilt= parameter, dgit will auto-detect that   
   .gitignore was modified and pick --quilt=gbp silently.  Then I have no   
   opportunity to fix this problem.   
      
   B) If I always supply a --quilt=unapplied there is more to type, which I   
   can deal with, but there is also an annoying warning:   
      
   git-debpush: check failed: unneeded --quilt=unapplied on command line, would   
   have autodetected it ('superfluous-quilt-mode' check)   
   git-debpush: proceed anyway? (y/N) y   
      
   The final outcome is that dgit penalize a workflow that harmonize git   
   upstream branch with upstream git content.  I find that unfortunate and   
   contrary to the spirit of dgit workflows.   
      
   Thoughts?   
      
   Is there a -Wno-error=superfluous-quilt-mode?
