Devuan have a workflow driven by the autobuild infrastructure based on
gitlab + jenkins + dak

Basically, every package in devuan has to have a project on our gitlab,
where for devuan native packages all sources are on the gitlab
repository, and for external hosted sources the devuan gitlab project
will have just the debian directory and a devuan specific script similar
to the "watch" script used in debian.

Anyone who want to contribute to devuan with a package maintaining it,
will have to open a devuan gitlab account, create a project, propose it
as official package.

If accepted, the repository will be added to the jenkins autobuild
infrastructure where we are using branches for autobuilding.

Basically any push to a pre-defined branch names will be autobuilded
and, if lintian doesn't complain, pushed automagically to the main
repository.

Pre-defined names are:

1- experimental
2- unstable
3- devuan version numbering or codenames

The point 3 has yet to be choosen.

So, for devuan jessie, assuming we will use codenames, you will have for
an "example" package a repository named "example" where master branch is
the one where you will develop, and when you merge/push changes to
experimental branch, the package will be autobuilded and pushed on the
experimental repository, the unstable to the unstable repository, and
jessie to the jessie / 1.0 repository.

For native devuan packages, jenkins will just clone the repository and
send to buildhosts to build and then on the package repository, for
externally hosted sources, jenkins will execute the devuan specific
script that will have to:

- clone/download sources
- remove eventually existant debian directory
- clone the gitlab debian directory
- build the package

And then push to repository like for the native one.

When branching for packaging external source hosted packages, a tarball
of the specific version has to be built will be copied on the gitlab
repo to permit package reproducibility.

This will be all documented on our gitlab wiki for the
"devuan/devuan-project" repository.
