Kubuntu/CI/Metadata

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

This page outlines the debian/meta/ directory contents used by CI systems to create builds. The foremost reason the metadata is stored in debian/, and thus in a branch dependent manner, is because data might be different on a per-branch basis.

debian/meta/ can be present and useful for release branches if they are also subject to automation.

Format Types

single-line
Single-line file containing the full upstream repository URL. May contain a final newline, scripts should strip accordingly when reading the file as a whole.
json
Valid json data. Format dependent on file.
