NAME

       dpkg-distaddfile - add entries to debian/files

SYNOPSIS

       dpkg-distaddfile [option...] filename section priority

DESCRIPTION

       dpkg-distaddfile adds an entry for a named file to debian/files.

       It takes three non-option arguments, the filename and the section
       and priority for the .changes file.

       The filename should be specified relative to the directory where
       dpkg-genchanges will expect to find the files, usually .., rather
       than being a pathname relative to the current directory when
       dpkg-distaddfile is run.

OPTIONS

       -ffiles-list-file
           Read or write the list of files to be uploaded here, rather
           than using debian/files.

       -?, --help
           Show the usage message and exit.

       --version
           Show the version and exit.

ENVIRONMENT

       DPKG_COLORS
           Sets the color mode (since dpkg 1.18.5).  The currently
           accepted values are: auto (default), always and never.

       DPKG_NLS
           If set, it will be used to decide whether to activate Native
           Language Support, also known as internationalization (or
           i18n) support (since dpkg 1.19.0).  The accepted values are:
           0 and 1 (default).

FILES

       debian/files
           The list of generated files which are part of the upload
           being prepared.  dpkg-distaddfile can be used to add
           additional files.
