DESCRIPTION

       gbp import-dsc  imports  a  Debian source package into a Git repository, notes the package
       version in the commit logs, and commits the change.  All  information,  including  package
       name,  version,  Debian  modifications and upstream source, is automatically detected from
       the source package. After import the repository can be used with the other gbp tools.

       If the command is run from within an existing Git repository, it will import into  it;  if
       not,  a new repository named as the Debian source package is created. You can override the
       location of the new repository by specifying the optional target argument.

       When given a URL gbp import-dsc will download the source package prior  to  importing  it.
       dget is used for all schemes except for the special scheme apt:/// which uses apt-get (and
       therefore needs  deb-src  entries  in  your  /etc/apt/sources.list).   The  later  can  be
       abbreviated by using the pseudo URL apt:.

OPTIONS

       --version
              Print version of the program, i.e. version of the git-buildpackage suite

       -v, --verbose
              Verbose execution

       -h, --help
              Print help and exit

       --color=[auto|on|off]
              Whether to use colored output.

       --color-scheme=COLOR_SCHEME
              Colors  to  use  in  output (when color is enabled). The format for COLOR_SCHEME is
              '<debug>:<info>:<warning>:<error>'.  Numerical values and color names are accepted,
              empty  fields  imply the default color. For example, --git-color-scheme='cyan:34::'
              would show debug messages in cyan, info messages in  blue  and  other  messages  in
              default (i.e. warning and error messages in red).

       --upstream-branch=branch_name
              The  branch  in  the  Git  repository the upstream sources are put onto. Default is
              upstream.

       --debian-branch=branch_name
              The branch in the Git repository the  debian  sources  are  put  onto.  Default  is
              master.

       --[no-]sign-tags
              GPG sign all created tags

       --keyid=gpg-keyid
              Use this keyid for gpg signing tags.

       --debian-tag=tag-format
              Use this tag format when tagging Debian versions, default is debian/%(version)s.

       --upstream-tag=tag-format
              Use    this    tag    format   when   tagging   upstream   versions,   default   is
              upstream/%(version)s.

       --skip-debian-tag
              Don't create Debian tag after importing the Debian patch. This can be useful if you
              already  created  a  package but want to further work on it after importing it into
              git.

       --filter=pattern
              Filter out files glob-matching  pattern  from  upstream  tarballs  and  the  debian
              tarball  of  3.0(quilt)  packages.  Note  that  the  .diff.gz  of 1.0 source format
              packages is currently not filtered.

              This option can be given multiple times.

       --pristine-tar
              Generate pristine-tar delta file.

       --allow-unauthenticated
              Whether to skip signature verification on downloads. Passed on verbatim to dget and
              apt-get respectively. Use with care.

       --allow-same-version
              Allow one to import a package with the same debian version.

       --author-is-committer
              When importing the Debian patch, use the author identity as committer identity.

       --author-date-is-committer-date
              When importing the Debian patch, use the author date as committer date.
              Warning

              Git  will  subtly  misbehave if the committer date of a commit is not later than or
              equal to all its parents.

       --[no-]create-missing-branches
              Create upstream and debian branch if missing.

       --repo-user=[GIT|DEBIAN]
              When set to DEBIAN use the DEBUSER environment variable to set  the  user.name  Git
              configuration otherwise use Git's defaults. Only affects newly created repos.

       --repo-email=[GIT|DEBIAN]
              When  set to DEBIAN use the DEBEMAIL environment variable to set the user.email Git
              configuration otherwise use Git's defaults. Only affects newly created repos.

       Several gbp.conf files are parsed to set defaults for the  above  command-line  arguments.
       See the gbp.conf(5) manpage for details.

EXAMPLES

       Download and import a source package from a URL:

             gbp import-dsc http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/hello/hello_2.10-1.dsc

       Download and import a source package via apt-get source from unstable:

             gbp import-dsc apt:hello/sid

       Import a source package in the local file system:

             gbp import-dsc ../hello_2.10-1.dsc
