Packaging of LinuxCNC for debian.org is split between:
17+
18+
linuxcnc.git (in <https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc.git>)::
19+
This is the regular LinuxCNC repository. This already provides instructions
20+
to build a Debian package in the subdirectory "debian/".
21+
Branches for this repository reflect the ongoing developments for LinuxCNC.
22+
linuxcnc-gbp.git (in <https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc-gbp.git>)::
23+
This repository has the same content as the release version, just that
24+
branches now describe the release of Debian that the package shall be
25+
used for. In particular, the script debian/configure was already executed.
26+
Default uploads go to Debian unstable, aka "sid", which needs
27+
to be stated in the file debian/changelog. Also the version number of the
28+
uploads to Debian are sligtly different, so that multiple revisions of the
29+
Debian package is possible for the same release of LinuxCNC.
