NAME
dcut
- Debian archive .commands file upload tool
SYNTAX
dcut
[options]
[host]
[command [, command]]
dcut
-U filename
[host]
DESCRIPTION
dcut creates and / or uploads .commands files for the Debian FTP
archive upload queue.
It is a companion for dput and uses dput configuration files.
As with dput, you can specify a
host
defined in the dput configuration file. In case your host is
funnily named, i.e. it could mistaken for a command, you may also use
a command line option to specify the host.
In default operation mode (unless you request to upload an existing
file), the host description is followed by a comma-seperated list of
commands. (Semicolons also work but require shell escaping.)
COMMANDS
Presently supported commands are mv and rm. Both have the
usual syntax but will accept neither options nor file names containing
slashes. Specifically, wild cards are allowed. (The only documentation
the author is aware of is
"http://ftp.up.ac.za/debian/UploadQueue/README".)
The options try to resemble dput's to the extent possible.
Note that dcut calls gpg to sign any commands file generated.
OPTIONS
-c filename, --config=filename
Use config file filename.
-d, --debug
Print debug messages.
-h, --help
Print help information and exit.
--host=host
Upload to host (as found in the dput configuration).
Use this if your host is named like one of the commands.
-m maintainer, --maintainer=maintainer
Use maintainer for the uploader field and gpg key selection.
This has no effect when --upload is used.
-O filename, --output=filename
Write commands file to filename instead of uploading.
You sould not specify a host when using this option.
Also, this option should not be used with --upload.
Both filename and filename.asc will be overwritten.
-P, --passive
Use passive ftp instead of active.
-s, --simulate
Simulate an upload only.
-U filename, --upload=filename
Upload commands file. Note: No checks (syntax or presence/validity of
signature) are currently performed.
-v, --version
Print version information and exit.
ENVIRONMENT
The program uses the environment variables DEBEMAIL and DEBFULLNAME to
populate the uploader field. Also, environment variables may be used
in search of a suitable place for temporary files.
