NAME

dh_quilt_unpatch - unapply patches listed in debian/patches/series

SYNOPSIS

dh_quilt_unpatch [debhelper options]

DESCRIPTION

dh_quilt_unpatch simply calls quilt pop -a after having set the environment variable QUILT_PATCHES to debian/patches. All patches listed in debian/patches/series are then unapplied in the current directory. The command does not fail if the patches have already been
unapplied.

You can use another directory instead of debian/patches by setting (and exporting) the environment variable QUILT_PATCH_DIR.

EXAMPLES

dh_quilt_unpatch is usually called indirectly in a rules file via the
dh command.
%:
dh --with quilt $@
It can also be direcly called in the clean rule.

clean:
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
[ ! -f Makefile ] || $(MAKE) clean
dh_quilt_unpatch
dh_clean
