I had decided to start using GIT for all of my packaging etc work so I wanted to create such a repository for the HwB (Hardware Book) packaging I'm doing. First tried using the git-svn command to migrate the existing svn repository I had over to a git repostiory; that worked but I really was not satisfied with the resulting repository, in part because of what it started with.
I then tried using the git-import-dsc command to directly import the existing Debian HwB archives in to a new GIT repository, which was successful for all of the package archives I had.
