Accepted Talks:

Using git for Ubuntu packaging

All packages in Ubuntu main, and a few Universe, and the corresponding Debian packages, have been imported into Launchpad git repositories. I’d like to show how these are structured so that people can perform these tasks: - add fixes on top (mostly for SRUs [Stable Release Update]s) - contribute to the release in development - how to quickly check what is the Ubuntu Delta wrt Debian - how to perform merges from Debian, i.e., apply the Ubuntu delta on top of the Debian package

How Ubuntu and Debian packages are structured in Launchpad Git

All packages in Ubuntu main, and a few Universe, and the corresponding Debian packages, have been imported into Launchpad git repositories. This short talk shows how these packages are organized in repositories, branches and tags, to facilitate proposing fixes.
