Description-en: Automatically release/upload debian packages from CVS
This package provides the capability of automatically publish a
deb package directly from the CVS source. The CVS source must be
already in the format managed by cvs-buildpackage, since
cvs-buildpackage will be used to generate the deb.
.
This package is useful to release the 'unstable' version of a
software. The control of when to release the deb is made by
watching the debian/changelog file. This script maintains a list
of which packages to automate and the version they are. Every
time you increases the version in changelog, the package you are
working will be generated.
.
It will also call dupload to send the generated package to
your deb server (which can be the main debian server or your
software house's debian server).
