If you changed significantly the packaging (which should not be the case here I guess), you can add your name to the debian/* Files: paragraph in debian/copyright. Otherwise, there is no need to. > 2) Also should i document the upstream's changes? No. Upstream changes are (or should be) documented in the upstream changelog. The Debian changelog just lists changes in packaging. Changes in upstream version closing Debian bugs could be mentioned though (but it does not apply here). > 3) What tags should i push to git.debian.org? > the current tags are: > debian/0.0.2-1 > upstream/0.0.2 > upstream/0.0.8 > I am guessing I should delete all tags except upstream/0.0.8 You need to push all your changes and the upstream tag with: git push --all git push --tags don't delete any tag: they mark in the repository commits corresponding to previous versions. A debian/0.0.8-1 tag will be added by the sponsor when the package reaches the archive. Cheers, Cédric
