It'd be nice for that to be up to date, but it isn't really important here. >So likely github has some out-of-sync mirror ATM and gitlab even looks like >some Bastian's fork ??? (which I'm finding seriously confusing for lvm2 >users - Debian should be giving different/distinct names here for their forked >projects instead i.e. lvm2-debian if there exists any real need for that...) I'm not certain of this, but I think that the branch is maintained with as many debian packages are being maintained now. Rather than a set of patches against an upstream, they're using git to maintain delta and git merge to sync changes. See https://wiki.debian.org/PackagingWithGit for more information. The upstream (lvm2) code is tagged in the repo, so you can see differences between upstream/2.03.16 to debian/2.03.16-2 at: https://salsa.debian.org/lvm-team/lvm2/-/compare/debian%2F2.03.16-2...upstream%2F2.03.16?from_project_id=24161&straight=true That will give you some idea of the changes in debian. you can get a diff without debian/ dir with: git diff upstream/2.03.16..debian/2.03.16-2 -- ':!debian' or git diff upstream/2.03.16..master -- ':!debian' Unfortunately, that doesn't get you a whole lot more information. There isn't a huge delta, but the delta there is not annotated particularly well. If I had to guess, I'd assume that some of it is no longer necessary. Dropping that delta would be a good example of something that is made much easier with the integration test that autopkgtest provides. >>> The gist at https://gist.github.com/smoser/3107dafec490c0f4d9bf9faf02327f04 >>> describes how I am doing this.

I was intentionally testing the debian package version here, as that is the ultimate goal of package tests. I've not tried with upstream. Sorry if that wasn't clear. _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
