32 rebase-helper is a tool which helps package maintainers to rebase their
33 packages to latest upstream versions.
34 It should be executed from a directory containing spec file, sources
36 and patches (usually cloned dist-git repository).
37 The new version is specified by SOURCES argument, which can be either
39 version number or filename of the new source archive. Starting with
40 version 0.10.0, this argument can be omitted and the new version deter‐
41 mined automatically using one of available versioneers.
