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