Source: systemd
Version: 204-7
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

after checking out the Vcs-Git for this package, it's not immediately
clear how to e.g. build it from Git after applying an additional
patch. I assume one shall use debian/systemd-hack-up-the-source.hook,
and perhaps gitpkg too, but I'm not sure how.

How about giving a few hints about this in debian/README.source?
If someone gave me enough hints about it, I wouldn't mind testing it
and writing the actual README.source.

(Actually, I'm interested in the answer both because I'd like to test
some systemd patches, and also because I suspect we might want to use
the same workflow in the upcoming pkg-otr team.)

Thank you for maintaining systemd in Debian.

Cheers,
