.B dgit setup-new-tree
Configure the current working tree the way that dgit clone would have
set it up. Like running
-.B dgit setup-useremail
-and
+.BR "dgit setup-useremail" ,
.B setup-mergechangelogs
+and
+.B setup-gitattributes
(but only does each thing if dgit is configured to do it automatically).
You can use these in any git repository, not just ones used with
the other dgit operations.
which uses
.BR dpkg-mergechangelogs .
.TP
+.B dgit setup-gitattributes
+Set up the working tree's
+.B .git/info/attributes
+to disable all transforming attributes for all files.
+This is done by defining a macro attribute
+.B dgit-defuse-attrs
+and applying it to
+.BR * .
+For why, see
+.B GITATTRIBUTES
+in
+.BR dgit(7) .
+
+(If there is already a macro attribute line
+.B [attr]dgit-defuse-attrs
+in .git/info/attributes
+(whatever its effects),
+this operation does nothing further.
+This fact can be used to defeat or partially defeat
+dgit setup-gitattributes
+and hence
+dgit setup-new-tree.)
+.TP
.B dgit quilt-fixup
`3.0 (quilt)' format source packages need changes representing not
only in-tree but also as patches in debian/patches. dgit quilt-fixup
in case dgit is confused.
(They might also be useful for testing error cases.)
.TP
-.B --import-dsc-with-dgit-field
+.B --force-import-dsc-with-dgit-field
Tell dgit import-dsc to treat a .dsc with a Dgit field
like one without it.
The result is a fresh import,
debian/changelog. True by default. Ignored for dgit
setup-mergechangelogs, which does it anyway.
.TP
+.BI dgit-distro. distro .setup-gitattributes
+Whether to configure .git/info/attributes
+to suppress checkin/checkout file content transformations
+in new git trees.
+True by default. Ignored for dgit setup-gitattributes, which does it anyway.
+.TP
.BI dgit-distro. distro .cmd- cmd
Program to use instead of
.IR cmd .
