NAME

       dpt-missing-upstream -- fix missing "upstream" branch and/or tags

SYNOPSIS

       dpt missing-upstream [--skip-missing-snapshots] [--check-only]

DESCRIPTION

       dpt missing-upstream tries to find releases present in debian/changelog that have no
       corresponding tags like "upstream/x.y.z".

       For each missing tag, an attempt is made to download the upstream sources from
       <http://snapshot.debian.org/> and then put them in version control using
       gbp-import-orig(1).

       If the "upstream" branch is also not present, it is either created from the remote
       repository, or, if it is not present on the remote repository, created from scratch.

       When all is done, the "upstream" branch is merged into "master". Nothing is pushed.

OPTIONS

       --check-only
           Only report missing tags, do not try to download sources.

       --skip-missing-snapshots
           If a given upstream source is not found even on <http://snapshot.debian.org>, just
           move on and do not abort execution.
