# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- Source: quilt Section: devel Priority: optional Maintainer: Martin Quinson Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.1.0), cdbs Standards-Version: 3.6.1.0 Package: quilt Architecture: any Depends: patch, diffstat, bzip2, gettext, gawk Suggests: ccache Description: Scripts for working with series of patches The scripts allow to manage a series of patches by keeping track of the changes each patch makes. Patches can be applied, un-applied, refreshed, etc. The key philosophical concept is that your primary output is patches. Not ".c" files, not ".h" files. But patches. So patches are the first-class object here. . This package also provide some basic support to build debian package and handling the diffs with quilt. . These scripts are based on Andrew Morton's patch scripts posted a while ago on the linux-kernel mailing-list, but were heavily modified since then.
