Hi,

There is a specialized script for creating release tarballs  
(createtarball):

https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdesdk/kde-dev-scripts/repository/revisions/master/show/createtarball

You can configure it with .ini file for Kronometer and create tarballs  
without any problem.

It is also possible to use fetchig scripts fro Trojita:

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/pim/trojita/repository

But you should configure docs fetching separately if you do so.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Yuri
