svn-do

SVN-DO(1)							 Command reference							 SVN-DO(1)

NAME

       svn-do - export a source and run a command inside the source.

SYNOPSIS

       svn-do COMMAND

DESCRIPTION

       svn-do will use svn-buildpackage to export a source, run a command inside the exported source and, if the command succeeds, copy back the
       debian/ tree

EXAMPLES

       clean the tree (useful if this requires the full source tree)

	   $ svn-do debclean
	   I: Exporting source tree via svn-buildpackage...
	   [...]
	   I: Running command: debclean
	   [...]
	   I: Copying back the debian/ tree...
	   'debian/control' -> 'path/package/debian/control'

       use quilt to refresh a patch

	   $ QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches svn-do 
	    sh -c "quilt push 002_static-linking-dont-build-perf.patch; 
	    quilt refresh"
	   [...]
	   I: Copying back the debian/ tree...
	   [...]
	   'debian/patches/002_static-linking-dont-build-perf.patch' ->
	   '/path/package/debian/patches/002_static-linking-dont-build-perf.patch'

       Start a source editing session and decide later not to copy back the debian/ tree

	   $ svn-do $SHELL
	   [...]
	   I: Running command: /bin/zsh
	   % exit 1
	   E: command exited with 1; not copying back the debian/ tree.

       edit a patch in a CDBS' simple-patchsys based package

	   $ svn-do cdbs-edit-patch 02_pmount.patch
	   [...]
