                       BRANCH_NAME] [--[no-]submodules] [--upstream-tag= tag-format] [--upstream-tree=

                       [--compression-level= LEVEL] [--component= component]... [--[no-]pristine-tar]

DESCRIPTION

       gbp export-orig is used to export upstream tarballs from a Git repository. Usually upstream tarballs  are
       created  by  gbp buildpackage  when  needed  but  if  you  don't want to perform a build you can use this
       command.

OPTIONS

       --verbose
              verbose execution

       --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 --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
              Branch to build the orig tarball from if --upstream-tree is set to BRANCH. Default is upstream.

       --[no-]submodules
              Include git submodules in the orig tarball.

       --upstream-tag=TAG-FORMAT
              Use this tag format when looking for tags of upstream versions, default is upstream/%(version)s.

       --force-create
              Force creation of an orig tarball (overwriting a pre-existing one if present).

       --upstream-tree=[BRANCH|TAG|TREEISH]
              How  to  find the upstream sources used to generate the tarball.  TAG (the default) looks at a tag
              corresponding to the version in the changelog. BRANCH looks at the upstream branch given  via  the
              --upstream-branch option.

              Other values are interpreted as treeishs.

              This doesn't have any effect if --pristine-tar is being used.

       --tarball-dir=DIRECTORY
              Search for original tarballs in DIRECTORY instead of generating them.

       --compression=TYPE
              Specifies  the  upstream  tarball  compression  type.  This  will  be used to locate and build the
              upstream tarball if necessary. The default is auto which derives the  compression  type  from  the
              pristine-tar  branch if available and falls back to gzip otherwise. Other options are gzip, bzip2,
              lzma and xz.

       --compression-level=LEVEL
              Specifies the upstream tarball compression level if an upstream tarball needs to be built.

       --component=COMPONENT
              When generating tarballs create an additional original  tarball  of  directory  COMPONENT  in  the
              source tree. Using additional original tarballs is a feature of the 3.0 (quilt) source format. See
              the dpkg-source manpage for details. Note  that  the  --pristine-tar-commit  option  is  currently
              incompatible with this option.

              This is considered an experimental feature and might change incompatibly.

       --pristine-tar
              Use pristine-tar when generating the upstream tarball if it doesn't exist.

EXAMPLES

       Generate an upstream tarball of the version currently referenced in the changelog using pristine-tar:

             gbp export-orig --pristine-tar

       Same as above but generate and additional tarball for directory foo.

             gbp export-orig --pristine-tar --component=foo

CONFIGURATION FILES

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