gbp clone
---------

Starting with git-buildpackage>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:

<snip>
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
</snip>

Then simply run:
	$ gbp clone ...
