NAME

       mercurial-importdsc - Import exiting package into Mercurial repository.

SYNOPSIS

       mercurial-importdsc [option] ... dscfile

DESCRIPTION

       Import  an  existing  source  package into a Mercurial repository.  The diffs and upstream
       sources are extracted from the contents of  the  .dsc  file.   mercurial-importorig(1)  is
       called  to  import the upstream source into the upstream branch, which is then merged into
       the default branch, and the diffs are applied to the default branch.  It  is  possible  to
       use  mercurial-importdsc  multiple times to import several versions, but the versions must
       be imported sequentially starting with the earliest version.

OPTIONS

       --version, -V

              Output version and exit.

       --verbose, -v

              Increase verbosity level.  Can be used several times.

EXAMPLES

       mercurial-importdsc ../mypack_1.2-3.dsc

              Import package mypack version 1.2-3 into the repository in the  current  directory.
              After the import, the repository will have the tags mypack_1.2 and mypack_1.2-3.
