+
+ git clone https://salsa.debian.org/grub-team/grub
+
+Git Subtrees
+------------
+
+grub.git/debian/grub-extras is maintained using git subtree merges. To
+update it to a given commit, first ensure that you have the relevant
+upstream remote, e.g.:
+
+ git remote add -f grub-extras https://git.sv.gnu.org/git/grub-extras.git
+
+And then:
+
+ git subtree merge -P debian/grub-extras <commit>
+

+

+ The master branch of the upstream grub.git tree, at the point
+ corresponding to the current Debian package version.
+
