NAME

       svn-upgrade - upgrade source package from a new upstream revision

SYNOPSIS

       svn-upgrade newsource [options]

DESCRIPTION

       svn-upgrade modifies a Debian package source located in a Subversion
       repository, upgrading it to a new upstream release. The repository
       filesystem tree must be in the format created by svn-inject.

OPTIONS

       svn-upgrade accepts the following options on the command-line:

       -V STRING | --version STRING
           Forces a different upstream version string

           Default: Off.

       -c | --clean
           Runs make clean and removes the debian/ directory in the new
           source.

           Default: Off.

       -P STRING | --packagename STRING
           Forces a different package name

           Default: Off.

       -v | --verbose
           More verbose program output

           Default: Off.

       -r | --replay-conflicting
           Extra cleanup run: replaces all conflicting files with upstream
           versions. Review of svn status output before doing that could make
           sense.

           Default: Off.

       -N | --noautodch
           Upgrade without making a new changelog entry.

           Default: Make the changelog entry.

       -u | --uscan
           Use uscan to download the new version.

       --noninteractive
           Turn off interactive mode.

       --ignoreerrors
           In noninteractive mode, ignore errors.

       --ignored-files-action STRING
           Make files that are ignored due to subversion ignore patterns to be
           'import'ed or 'skip'ed.

       -e | --auto-epoch
           Automatically increase version epoch if the new upstream version is
           not greater than the current.

       --debclean
           Run debclean before merging the new upstream source.

       Tarballs must be compressed with gzip or bzip2.
