dpkg-distaddfile(1)                         dpkg suite                        dpkg-distaddfile(1)

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
