題目: Re: [Dng] The result of my learning in the last few days
The common way to update the upstream source of a Debian package is:

1) Checkout the upstream branch.
2) Unpack a tarball of the desired version.
3) Commit all changes.
4) Tag the commit as "upstream/$VERSION".
5) pristine-tar commit /path/to/upstream/tarball.tgz
6) Checkout master/development branch.
7) Merge with the upstream

The only difference between the upstream branch and the
master/development branch should be the debian/ directory, so the merge
should go off without a hitch.

Updating to a date instead of a release tag is also a bit unusual.
