DESCRIPTION

       gbp  import-dsc  imports  a Debian source package into a Git repository, notes the package version in the
       commit logs, and commits the change. All information, including package name, version, Debian  diffs, and
       upstream source, is automatically detected from the source package.

       If the command is run from within an existing repository, it  will  import  into  this;  if  not,  a  new
       repository named as the Debian source package is created.

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).

       --upstream-branch=branch_name
              The branch in the Git repository the upstream sources are put onto. Default is upstream.

       --debian-branch=branch_name
              The branch in the Git repository the debian sources are put onto. Default is master.

       --[no-]sign-tags
              GPG sign all created tags

       --keyid=gpg-keyid
              use this keyid for gpg signing tags

       --debian-tag=tag-format
              use this tag format when tagging Debian versions, default is debian/%(version)s

       --upstream-tag=tag-format
              use this tag format when tagging upstream versions, default is upstream/%(version)s

       --skip-debian-tag
              Don't  create  Debian  tag  after  importing  the  Debian patch. This can be useful if you already
              created a package but want to further work on it after importing it into git.

       --filter=pattern
              filter out files glob-matching pattern. Can be given multiple times.

       --pristine-tar
              generate pristine-tar delta file

       --download
              Download the source package instead of looking for it in the local file system. The  argument  can
              either be a source-package name or a URL. The former uses apt-get to download the source while the
              later uses dget.

       --allow-unauthenticated
              Whether to skip signature verification on downloads.

       --allow-same-version
              Allow one to import a package with the same debian version.

       --author-is-committer
              When importing the Debian patch, use the author identity as committer identity.

       --author-date-is-committer-date
              When importing the Debian patch, use the author date as committer date.

              Warning: Git will subtly misbehave if the committer date of a commit is not later than or equal to
              all its parents.

       --[no-]create-missing-branches
              Create missing upstream and debian branch if missing.
