hg-importorig imports the tar.gz, tar.bz2, or zip file given by filename (or a directory, if filename is one) into the hg-buildpackage archive. Since upstream tarballs do not contain the package and version information in a unified format, you must specify that on the command line as well.
It is an error to run hg-importorig on a package when a newer version already exists in the archive. hg-importorig detects this condition and will terminate without causing harm.
filename_or_dir | Gives the path to a tar.gz file to import. Alternatively, gives the path to a directory to import without unpacking anything. |
package | Gives the Debian source package name corresponding to this upstream package. |
version | Gives the package version corresponding to this upstream package. This should not contain the Debian part (-1, -2, etc). |
This application uses no environment variables directly, but other programs it calls may do so.
