It's a description of how I've structured my hg repos. The dabo-svn

repo follows your (the main) svn repo and then I've colone that to

make the debianisation chnages.

I'n mot sure whether all hg imports of svn are created equal, as

in hg changeset are uniquelly identified by a hash value and I don't no

whether someohere else import will be the same so I've put mine

up so anyone who wants to use my changes with hg can do so more easily.

Nope.

What I've done is added a directory to my own mecurial revsion

control repositry (as I don't have svn write).

To build the .deb you would checkout a version of dabo with the new files

and update debian/changelog if necessary.

Then to build a .deb on a appropriate machine you just run 'debuild'
