This directory is the Debian upload queue of ssh.upload.debian.org. All
valid files uploaded here will be transferred to ftp.upload.debian.org.

Only known Debian developers can upload here. Uploads have to be signed
by PGP keys in the Debian keyring. Files not meeting this criterion or
files not mentioned in a .changes file will be removed after some time.

The queue daemon will notify you by mail of success or any problems
with your upload.


*.commands Files
----------------

Besides *.changes files, you can also upload *.commands files for the
daemon to process. With *.commands files, you can instruct the daemon
to remove or rename files in the queue directory that, for example,
resulted from failed or interrupted uploads. A *.commands file looks
much like a *.changes, but contains only two fields: Uploader: and
Commands:. It must be PGP-signed by a known Debian developer, to avoid
that E.V.L. Hacker can remove/rename files in the queue. The basename
(the part before the .commands extension) doesn't matter, but best
make it somehow unique.

The Uploader: field should contain the mail address to which the reply
should go, just like Maintainer: in a *.changes. Commands: is a
multi-line field like e.g. Description:, so each continuation line
should start with a space. Each line in Commands: can contain a
standard 'rm' command, but no options are allowed. Filenames may not
contain slashes (so that they're restricted to the queue
directory). 'rm' can process as much arguments as you give it (not only
one), and also knows about the shell wildcards *, ?, and [].

Example of a *.commands file:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

Uploader: Some One <some@example.com>
Commands: 
 rm hello_1.0-1_i386.deb

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux)

[...]
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
