NAME

       dpt-upstream-repo - add upstream Git repository as git remote upstream-repo

SYNOPSIS

       dpt upstream-repo [-g|-u]

DESCRIPTION

       dpt upstream-repo adds the upstream Git repository as a git remote named upstream-repo. The URL for the
       repository is read from either debian/copyright's Source field or from debian/upstream/metadata's
       Repository field.

       In case there's no Git URL in debian/copyright and debian/upstream/metadata doesn't exist, the latter is
       created with dpt-debian-upstream(1).

OPTIONS

       -g  Don't create debian/upstream/metadata.

           Used   for   initial   cloning,  e.g.  with  mr  up:  We  want  the  upstream  repo  being  added  if
           debian/upstream/metadata exists.

           The letter g is used for historical  reasons  because  initially  this  option  only  suppressed  the
           automatic committing to the git repository.

       -u  Update  the  URL  of the upstream-repo git remote.  The value is read from the same places as for the
           initial creation.

           -u implies -g, i.e. we also don't create debian/upstream/metadata on updates.
