NAME

       dbp-get - Check out a Debian package from a Darcs repository

SYNOPSIS

       dbp-get [ package ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  dbp-get  command  is used to check out a copy of the Debian source
       for a package from Darcs.  Additionally, it can automatically  download
       a  copy  from  any  of  several mirrors if the Darcs repository doesn't
       already exist locally.

OPTIONS

       The one option specifies the name of the package to get.

CONFIGURATION

       Configuration happens in ~/.darcs-buildpackage like with all the  other
       commands.   The  two new options are debianmirrors and upstreammirrors.
       They are whitespace-separated lists of mirrors to check  if  the  given
       package isn't in the local area.  Here's an example:

       repobase = /home/jgoerzen/debdarcs
       upstreamrepo = %(repobase)s/%(package)s.upstream
       debianrepo = %(repobase)s/%(package)s

       debianmirrors = http://darcs.complete.org/debian/%(package)s
               http://somewhereelse.example.com/debian/%(package)s
       upstreammirrors = http://darcs.complete.org/debian/%(package)s.upstream
               http://foo.example.com/upstream/%(package)s

SEE ALSO

       Detailed usage information, including a background and a description of
       how the tools fit together, can  be  found  in  the  darcs-buildpackage
       Manual.   On Debian systems, you may find this at /usr/share/doc/darcs-
       buildpackage.

       darcs-buildpackage applications have references in that manual and  the
       following    manpages:    dbp-importdsc(1),   dbp-importorig(1),   dbp-
       markdeb(1), darcs-buildpackage(1).
