NAME

7

SYNOPSIS

9       packit source-git init [OPTIONS] UPSTREAM_REF SOURCE_GIT DIST_GIT
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Initialize SOURCE_GIT as a source-git repo by applying downstream
13           patches from DIST_GIT as Git commits on top of UPSTREAM_REF.
14
15           SOURCE_GIT  needs  to  be an existing clone of the upstream reposi‐
16       tory.
17
18           UPSTREAM_REF is a tag, branch or commit from SOURCE_GIT.
19
20           SOURCE_GIT and DIST_GIT are paths to the source-git and dist-git
21           repos. Branch names can be specified, separated by colons.
22
23           If a branch name is specified for SOURCE_GIT, the branch is checked
24           out and reset to UPSTREAM_REF.
25
26           If a branch name is specified for DIST_GIT, the branch is checked
27           out before setting up the source-git repo. This branch is expected
28           to exist.
29
30           Each Git commit created in SOURCE_GIT will have  a  'From-dist-git-
31       commit'
32           trailer  to  mark  the hash of the dist-git commit from which it is
33       created.
