NAME

dh_dist_zilla_origtar - debhelper add-on to generate an upstream tar ball

DESCRIPTION

dh_dist_zilla_origtar is the backend for the dh-dist-zilla's "dh get-orig-source" target to generate minimal upstream tar-balls suitable for use with dh-dist-zilla.

It runs "dzil clean" by default before creating the tar ball.

OPTIONS

"--pristine-tar": Also commit generated upstream tar ball to pristine-tar branch using pristine-tar.

"--no-clean": Don't run "dzil clean" before creating the tar ball.

Options before "--" are used by debhelper. Options after "--" are passed on to "tar".
