NAME
       dpkg-distaddfile - add entries to debian/files

SYNOPSIS
       dpkg-distaddfile [options] 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-dis‐
       taddfile is run.

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

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

       --version
              Show the version and exit.

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.
