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.
