[Debichem-devel] Moving debichem blends package from SVN to Salsa

[Andreas Tille]

Hi again,

the outage of alioth today which resulted in a hourly mail that Debichem
tasks files in SVN can not be reached reminded me, that this issue might
get some increased urgency.  My prefered way to create a Debichem
metapackages Git repository would be to use

    gbp import-dscs --debsnap --pristine-tar debichem

since it is at least not wrong even if we will loose some details in
history.  If I do not hear from you until begin of April I'll create
this Git repository on Salsa and will activate it for the websentinel
creation.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
