Tag: git-patches-not-exported Severity: error Check: debian/source-dir Explanation: The source package contains files in debian/source/git-patches. These patches should have been exported via the quilt-patches-deb-export-hook of gitpkg. . It does not look like the patches were exported for this source package. . You will see this tag when you generate a source package without gitpkg (or with a misconfigured version) unless the patches were exported manually. . See the above mentioned hook file (in /usr/share/gitpkg/hooks) for information on how to export patches manually.
