CVS-DEBC(1)                            General Commands Manual                           CVS-DEBC(1)



NAME
       cvs-debrelease - upload a cvs-buildpackage/cvs-debuild generated package

SYNOPSIS
       cvs-debrelease [cvs-debrelease options] [--dopts [dupload/dput options]]

DESCRIPTION
       cvs-debrelease  is  run from the CVS working directory after cvs-buildpackage or cvs-debuild.
       It uses the cvs-buildpackage system to locate the .changes file generated in  that  run.   It
       then  uploads  the  package  using debrelease(1), which in turn calls either dupload or dput.
       Note that the --dopts option must be specified to distinguish the cvs-debrelease options from
       the  dupload  or dput options.  Also, the devscripts configuration files will be read, as de‐
       scribed in the debrelease(1) manpage.

       Note that unlike cvs-buildpackage, the only way to specify the source package  name  is  with
       the -P option; you cannot simply have it as the last command-line parameter.

OPTIONS
       All current cvs-buildpackage options are silently accepted; however, only the ones listed be‐
       low have any effect.  For more details on all of them, see the  cvs-buildpackage(1)  manpage.
       All debrelease options (as listed below) are also accepted.

       --dupload, --dput
              This specifies which uploader program to use; the default is dupload.

       -adebian-architecture, -tGNU-system-type
              See  dpkg-architecture(1)  for a description of these options.  They affect the search
              for the .changes file.  They are provided to mimic the behaviour of  dpkg-buildpackage
              when determining the name of the .changes file.

       -Mmodule
              The name of the CVS module.

       -Ppackage
              The name of the package.

       -Vversion
              The version number of the package.

       -Ttag  The CVS tag to use for exporting sources.

       -Rroot directory
              Root of the original sources archive.

       -Wwork directory
              The full path name for the cvs-buildpackage working directory.

       -xprefix
              This option provides the CVS default module prefix.

       --no-conf, --noconf
              Do  not read any configuration files.  This can only be used as the first option given
              on the command-line.

       --help, --version
              Show help message and version information respectively.
