NAME

       gbp-push - Push Debian packaging changes to a Git remote

SYNOPSIS

       gbp push [--version] [--help] [--verbose] [--color=[auto|on|off]] [--color-scheme= COLOR_SCHEME]
                [--ignore-branch] [--debian-branch= branch_name] [--upstream-branch= branch_name] [--debian-tag=
                tag-format] [--upstream-tag= tag-format] [--[no-]pristine-tar] [--dry-run] [repository]

DESCRIPTION

       gbp push  pushes  your  local  changes  to  a  remote repository. It is best run after uploading a Debian
       package  to  the  archive  to  update  you  debian-branch,  upstream-branch,  pristine-tar   branch   and
       corresponding tags. It will in order

       • Verify that it is being executed from the debian-branch.

       • Determine  the  debian tag from debian/changelog and add it the list of things to push if the changelog
         does not indicate an unreleased package.

       • Determine the upstream tag from debian/changelog and add it to the list of things to push if it's not a
         native package.

       • Determine  if the tags correspond to the branch tips of the corresponding upstream and debian branches.
         If so, these branches will be added to the list of things to push. If not  the  changes  will  only  be
         pushed up to the commit that is referenced by the corresponding tag.

       • Determine  if  the  pristine-tar  branch  needs to be pushed and if so adds it to the list of things to
         push.

       • Finally, if not in dry-run mode, pushes the above changes to the remote side.

       If a remote is given on the command line the changes are  pushed  to  the  given  remote  repository.  By
       default it will push to the current branchs remote and fall back to origin.

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).

--ignore-branch
Don't fail if the debian-branch does not match the currently checked out branach and push the
current branch instead.

--debian-branch=branch_name
The branch in the Git repository the Debian package is being developed on. If set to the empty
value the branch will not be pushed.

--debian-tag=TAG-FORMAT
Use this tag format when looking for tags corresponding to a Debian version. Default is
debian/%(version)s. If set to the empty value the tag will not be pushed.

--upstream-branch=branch_name
The branch in the Git repository the upstream sources are put onto. If set to the empty value the
branch will not be pushed.

--upstream-tag=TAG-FORMAT
Use this tag format when looking for tags of upstream versions. Default is upstream/%(version)s.
If set to the empty value the tag will not be pushed.

--pristine-tar
Whether to update the pristine-tar branch too.

--dry-run
Pass the --dry-run to git push. So don't push anything, only check if things are pushable.

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.
