We have to learn fedpkg to do all the magic ;-) Something like add remote git tree with exploded tree: fedpkg exploded-tree add ssh://git.fedorahosted.org/git/foo.git list log for exploded/upstream..exploded/f20 (or only --new commits which not found in .spec): fedpkg exploded-tree log [--new] generate Patch<N>: .spec file lines, call git format-patch and git-add from exploded/upstream..exploded/f20 stuff: fedpkg exploded-tree update-patches generate %changelog according to References: from commit messages: fedpkg exploded-tree update-changelog ... dreaming is so simple, volunteers? :-) Karel -- Karel Zak <kzak@xxxxxxxxxx> http://karelzak.blogspot.com -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
