gbp clone
---------

Starting with gbp>0.8.1, here's a simple way to automatically fine-tune the
repository in the following ways:
- make git ignore any .pc/ directory (created by quilt)
- enable the "--follow-tags" when running 'git-push', so it's harder
  to forget to push packaging tags along with the branches.

To enable this for ALL repositories cloned via 'gbp' (in the future), do
something like the following:

    $ mkdir -p ~/bin
    $ cat >> ~/bin/gbphook-postclone <<EOF
    #!/bin/sh
    ## script to initialize a cloned repository
    # - enable the "--follow-tags" mode for pushing
    echo "tuning git-repository for ${NAME}"
    git config push.followTags true && echo "enabled push.followTags"
    # - ignore quilt's .pc/ directory
    GITEXCLUDE=".git/info/exclude"
    egrep "^/?\.pc/?$" "${GITEXCLUDE}" >/dev/null 2>&1 \
      || (echo "/.pc/" >> "${GITEXCLUDE}" && echo "ignoring /.pc/")
    EOF

    $ chmod u+x ~/bin/gbphook-postclone
    $ cat >> ~/.gbp.conf <<EOF
    [clone]
    postclone = ~/bin/gbphook-postclone
    EOF

    $ gbp clone ...
