use svn-buildpackage with the following repository (Debichem if you want to know):
/experimental/foo/debian/
…
/unstable/foo/debian/
/unstable/bar/debian/
…
/tags/foo/0.1-1
…
This sort of layout doesn’t seem to be standard and *-buildpackage are confusing me. Are *-buildpackage tools really worth it? Is it easier to just export the debian/ directory into an unpacked upstream tarball?
Also, as sort of a dare, does anybody know if hg,git,bzr-buildpackage will work off of such a SVN repo?
