       branch checked out.

OPTIONS

       Options must come before parameters.

       -i  Run interactively, e.g. call "git merge" with --no-commit, so the commit can be
           amended. Useful if the imported upload adds/removes files.

           Interactive mode is also enabled if a .gitignore file is found.

PARAMETERS

       BASETAG
           The Git tag representing the package version before the one to be imported. Required.

       NEWVERSION
           The package version to be downloaded and imported. Required.

NOTES

       •   To make merging Debian tags as painless as possible, dpkg-mergechangelogs(1) is
           helpful.

       •   For downloading the source package, "deb-src" entries are required in the
           sources.list.
