100 New features [Sean Whitton]:
101 * Introduce dgit.default.build-products-dir git configuration key.
103 * Die earlier, and with a more helpful message, if the user tries to
104 include dirty changes when building a source package in split brain
107 dgit behavioural changes:
108 * dgit: Always build the source package ourselves, rather than
109 sometimes leaving that to the builder command. dgit will now
110 usually generate *_multi.changes rather than *_$arch.changes.
111 * dgit: Build source packages in a private directory, except when
112 the user passes --include-dirty [Sean Whitton].
113 - dgit push-source no longer cleans the tree [Sean Whitton].
114 * dgit: Rename --ignore-dirty to --include-dirty (leaving the old
115 name supported as a deprecated alias).
117 Test suite improvements:
118 * test suite: unset VISUAL, which interferes. Closes:#904308.
119 * Honour DGIT_SCHROOT_CHROOT to set the schroot to use for the sbuild
121 * Support tests/run-all --progressive.
122 * Drop now-obsolete *-asplit tests.
125 * apt-get method: when apt does not update release files,
126 unconditionally print hint about noatime. Closes:#851873.
127 * messages: Be a lot more friendly about NEW in particular,
128 and also add a couple of `please's. Closes:#904448.

207 - There is still occasional lossage. So when running tests

284 fetch. Closes:#871317.

390 New features [Sean Whitton]:
391 * New 'push-source' subcommand for source-only uploads. Closes:#848931
392 * When dgit builds a source package, such as in the 'build-source'
393 subcommand, it now bypasses dpkg-buildpackage and invokes dpkg-source
394 directly. This avoids a _source.buildinfo file in the .changes, which
395 doesn't make sense when using dgit. See
396 <https://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2017/06/msg00005.html>.
398 Documentation improvements:
399 * dgit(1): Add a bit more rationale (polemic, even). Closes:#874221.

410 * In split brain mode, with unexpected diffs, print dgit view
411 commitid in suggested diff rune. (HEAD is wrong.) Closes:#886443.
412 * Fix message about missing quilt cache entry to refer to
413 HEAD rather than tree, since dgit needs a commit. Closes:#884646.

425 retrying each individual test once, and more sophisticated
426 wrapper for gpg (with locking and, sometimes saves stdin).

450 * Change the dpkg-source -i argument to exclude exactly the right
451 set of things. (Sadly this is not a simple rune.)
453 Other improvements to dgit:
454 * New print-dpkg-source-ignores option to print the big rune
455 you need to pass to dpkg-source to make it work exactly right.
456 * Properly shell-quote the --git-builder argument to gbp.
459 * dgit-user(7): Provide information about how to use sbuild.
460 Quite ugly due to #868527. Closes:#868526.
461 * dgit-user(7): Fixed example rune to use curl (which prints
462 to stdout, as the rune expects). [reported by Simon Tatham]
465 * Do not leave many clog-* files in .git/dgit.
468 * using-these: New script to help with ad-hoc-testing.
469 * Refactoring in preparation for push-source [Sean Whitton].
472 * sbuild-gitish: New test case to check running sbuild from git
473 * Work around gnupg agent connection races by having our stunt
474 gpg wrapper simply try running gpg again, once, if it exits 2.

1104 dgit (2.0) unstable; urgency=low
1106 Incompatible change:
1107 * dgit sbuild: does not pass -A to sbuild. Consequently the default
1108 build is now simply sbuild's default. With older sbuilds it was
1109 possible to override dgit's -A by passing another option. But this
1110 has been changed recently and now this default setting is very awkward
1111 to change for the dgit user.
1112 * dgit gbp-build: Make --quilt=gbp the default. (See below.)
1113 * New tag format (for dgit view) archive/debian/VERSION.
1116 * --quilt=gbp, --quilt=dpm, --quilt=unpacked: Introduce facility for
1117 split view (dgit/mainiainer view), to improve compatibility with some
1120 New checks and improved behaviours in dgit:
1121 * When running dpkg-buildpackage, cope if user specified -g or -G.
1122 * dgit sbuild: check that the set of .changes files found is as we
1123 expect, before calling mergechanges. Re:#800060.
1124 * dgit sbuild: Rename the used-up .changes files to `.inmulti' to
1125 avoid accidental use of the wrong one (by software, or by users).
1126 * dgit sbuild: Check that the binary .changes file doesn't contain a
1128 * Introduce --rm-old-changes to delete previous builds' changes files.
1129 * Remove any pre-existing _source.changes file before building source,
1131 * No longer tolerate a multitude of .changes files when doing push.
1132 Instead, insist on a single one. Closes:#800110.
1133 * dgit sbuild no longer deletes extranious .changes files; instead
1134 we rely on --rm-old-changes, or failing that, fail early.
1135 * When doing quilt linearisation, treat upstream .gitignores not
1136 in the toplevel the same way we treat ones in the toplevel.
1137 * When automatically generating quilt patch, honour GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
1138 for filename creation (makes filename deterministic in test suite).
1139 * New --overwrite option, replaces need to for user to use
1140 git merge -s ours. Closes:#838718.
1141 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, make patches that
1142 look quite like git-format-patch output (rather than strange things
1143 based on an obselete interpretation of DEP-3).
1144 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, honour (and strip)
1145 any Gbp-Pq headers (that we understand).
1146 * Several dgit-generated commits now have slightly better annotations
1147 from dgit about what it was doing.
1148 * Before committing to push, check that .dsc and .changes correspond.
1150 * Better error message if non-split-brain patch stack no longer
1151 applies (due to new upstream version, or user messing with it).
1153 * Better error message if HEAD contains changes unrepresentable
1154 by `3.0 (quilt)'. Closes:#834618.
1155 * Much better error message when HEAD and .dsc do not match.
1159 * dgit-repos-policy-debian: Better error handling.
1160 * dgit-repos-policy-debian.: fix git-cat-file-handling with multiple
1162 * dgit-infrastructure has, and uses, its own copies of the perl modules.
1163 This avoids introducing a versioned dependency between dgit and
1164 dgit-infrastructure (and also makes it easier to test cross-version
1168 * Document the dgit-distro.DISTRO.quilt-mode config setting.
1169 * Clarify the --clean= options' documentation. Closes:#800054.
1170 * Discourage use of the --PROGRAM:OPTION escape hatch. (Apropos
1171 of various bug reports including #800060 and #833025.)
1172 * Document the expected form of HEAD for each --quilt= mode.
1175 * When cleaning up after failed clone, stat the to-be-cleaned-up
1176 directory before running rmtree on it. Closes:#796773.
1177 * Do not call "warn" on failure of cleanup handler in END block
1178 (since warn has been made fatal and aborts the cleanup chain).
1179 * Print better error message (with `fail' rather than `die') if
1180 `dgit clone' cannot create the destination directory.
1181 * Properly substitute $changesfile in one of the `You can retry'
1182 messages. Closes:#800078.
1183 * Pass --ch:* and -v options to dpkg-buildpackage when building
1184 source. Fixes bad Perl poetry syntax. Closes:#829121.
1185 * When synthesing a commit from a .dsc from the archive, stop
1186 internal git reset from printing a confusing message about HEAD.
1187 * Turn off git gc in the private working areas.
1188 * Do not fail to do some important quilt processing in some
1190 * Fix two calls to chdir without proper error checking.
1191 * Fix a couple of bugs in error reporting.
1192 * Fix several bugs in .orig detection/recognition.
1193 * Tidy up refs/dgit-fetch/ after dgit fetch (if successful).
1194 * Fix handling of in-archive copies.
1195 * Don't break if user has push.followTags=true. Closes:#827878.
1196 * Arrange for the special dgit remote to be skipped by git fetch --all
1197 etc. And no longer configure a fetch spec, since it won't work
1198 anyway. Closes:#827892.
1199 * Allow local git config options to override user-global ones,
1200 as is proper. Closes:#835858.
1201 * When generating patch filenames from titles, first transliterate
1202 them (lossily) to ascii. Closes:#834807.
1205 * When sbuild fails, do not crash due to sed not finding the log
1206 file. Instead, simply tolerate the absence of the log file.
1207 * Put --no-arch-all in build-modes-sbuild act, not only its real_act.
1208 Cosmetic change only.
1209 * Set GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE and increment them
1210 explicitly in drs-push-rejects test. This avoids date dependencies
1211 which can cause that test to fail on fast computers.
1212 * Remove some spurios .debs from the example_1.0.tar.
1213 * Increase sqlite_busy_timeout in debpolicy-dbretry, because old
1214 zealot is very slow and we need to give the other processes time
1215 to rollback and release the lock.
1216 * Test quilt single-debian-patch.
1217 * Provide `tartree-edit gitfetchinfo' etc. to help with comparing
1218 different test case git working tree tarballs.
1219 * Test dgit-repos-policy-debian with multiple (identical, as it happens)
1221 * Provide better log output for certain failures.
1222 * Many new tests (especially for new functionality).
1223 * Add missing debhelper (>=8) to test suite's global Depends.
1224 * tstunt arrangements: Fix mishandling of PERLLIB, etc.
1225 * tstunt-parsechangelog: Produce Timestamp field (like official one
1227 * Do not fail when git requires --allow-unrelated-histories.

1252 actually do construct the quilt fixup commit; instead, honour
1253 --dry-run by avoiding pulling it back to your HEAD.
1254 * quilt-fixup checks that the git tree is clean, as for build-prep.
1257 * In dgit(7), discuss binaries and documentation present in upstream but
1258 removed by rules clean.
1261 * Run quilt-fixup with -wgf in distropatches-reject,

1436 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
1438 * Client uses new infrastructure:
1439 - Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
1440 gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
1442 - Old versions of dgit will stop working when the server-side handle is
1445 * dgit git trees no longer contain .pc for format `3.0 (quilt)' source
1446 packages. Closes:#764606.
1447 - It is deleted whenever we find it.
1448 - Older versions of dgit will choke on trees without .pc.
1449 - (When doing quilt fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary
1450 directory so that we can do dpkg-source --comit.)
1452 * All users are urged to upgrade ASAP.
1454 Other significant improvements:
1456 * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
1457 series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
1459 * When receiving a push with dgit-repos-server, update the server's
1460 refs/heads/master if we are pushing to what the distro regards as a
1461 relevant branch, and the push would ff master. Closes:#728209.
1463 * For non-Debian distros, distro version release tags contain distro
1464 name a la DEP-14 (rather than hardcoding `debian/').
1466 * Set up a merge driver for debian/changelog. Closes:#769291.
1468 * --clean=git and --clean=none cause dgit to pass -nc to
1469 dpkg-buildpackage, suppressing calls to the package's clean target.
1470 Also, expand the documentation in this area slightly. Closes:#768590.
1472 * Provide --clean=git-ff (aka -wgf), which is useful for dgit itself (!)
1476 * Reduce some noise output and improve the clarity of some messages.
1477 * Be more careful about tag updates during fetch: only update tags
1478 referring to uploads to distro we are trying to fetch from.
1479 * Change realpath dependency to `coreutils (>= 8.23-1~) | realpath'
1484 * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
1485 * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
1486 * Strip `-b <branch>' from contents of Vcs-Git header, when setting up
1487 the vcs-git remote. Closes:#759374.
1488 * Do not offer wget as an alternative dependency to curl. We always
1489 unconditionally invoke curl and have no code to use wget.
1491 * Complain about lack of cuddled values for value-taking single-letter
1492 options, rather than thinking the user meat an empty value.
1494 * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witth -wn, -wg,
1496 * Fix inaccurate error message when archive's git hash is not an
1497 ancestor of git repo's git hash.
1498 * Detect and bomb out on vendor-specific `3.0 (quilt)' patch series.
1499 * Fix the rules clean target to remove test results and output.
1501 Documentation improvements:
1503 * Break out dgit(7) from dgit(1).
1504 * Provide example workflow for dgit rpush. Closes:#763334.
1505 (Also part of the fix for #768470.)
1506 * Document that dgit repos are cloneable with git, in dgit(1)
1507 section MODEL. [Andreas Barth.] Closes:#768470.
1508 * Better documentation for quilt series handling.
1509 * Document under `dgit push' that it is best to build with dgit too.
1511 * Other minor clarifications and improvements.
1513 Behind-the-scenes work:
1515 * Use ftpmasterapi archive query method.
1516 (Closes:#727702. Also partly obsoletes #768470.)
1517 * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et
1518 al. Client users probably don't want this stuff. Also, it provides a
1519 convenient way to publish the dependencies.
1520 * Many many bugfixes to the server side (dpkg-repos-server et al.).
1521 * Add :..; prefix to ssh remote commands, for the benefit of future
1522 forced command wrappers. Implicitly, this defines a new ssh-based
1523 command protocol. Closes:#720174, #720175.

1579 using libdpkg-perl 1.17.x). Closes:#731635.
1580 * Improve error message for .dsc parsing failures more generally.
1581 * Better reporting of child exit statuses (esp. deaths due to signals).
1582 * In rpush, on protocol error talking to build host, check if the
1583 subprocess died and report differently if so. Closes:#736528.
1584 * Fixed a manpage typo.
1585 * When tests invoke dgit, use --dgit= so that subprocesses use our
1586 dgit rather than system one.

1590 * dgit-repos-server: New program for receiving signed-tag-based
1591 pushes. Corresponding support in dgit itself, but not currently
1592 used by default for any distro.
1593 * Bring forward push of the version tag ref so it happens alongside
1594 the push of the suite branch ref.
1595 * New git-check and git-create methods "true" which are no-ops.
1596 * test-dummy-drs `distro': for testing dgit and dgit-repos-server.

1602 Bugfixes relating to unclean trees:
1603 * Run a clean (of the specified type) before any build operation; do
1604 this with `dpkg-buildpackage -T' clean if necessary, so -wd now works
1605 with all the building methods.
1606 * Refuse to do quilt fixup (explicitly requested, or as a result of
1607 build) if the tree contains ignored files. Closes:#731632.
1609 Error message improvements:
1610 * Use failedcmd to report errors when ssh psql fails. Closes:#734281.
1611 * failedcmd prints $us, not $_[0] - ie, dgit doesn't pretend,
1612 in the error message, to be its child.
1613 * Do not report the (irrelevant) $? when madison parsing fails.
1615 Better workflow flexibility:
1616 * Provide --build-products-dir option (and corresponding semantics
1617 for -C) to specify where to find the files to upload. Closes:#731633.
1619 Support for Debian backports suites:
1620 * New quirks infrastructure in configuration and internals,
1621 for suites (or perhaps distros) which are a bit like others.
1622 * Use correct default archive location.
1623 * Compute "-v" option default value correctly.
1626 Packaging improvement:
1627 * Add `Testsuite: autopkgtest' to debian/control. (This will only have
1628 the right effect with recent enought dpkg; it will generate a harmless
1629 warning with earlier versions of dpkg.)

1656 * sshpsql archive query method passes LANG=C. Closes:#729788.
1657 * Subcommand program or argument options containing hyphens work.
1658 (Eg, --dpkg-buildpackage:blah was previously incorrectly rejected.)
1662 * Depend on curl | wget, as dget needs one of those. (The dput package,
1663 which contains dget, doesn't require them because dput itself works

1668 dgit (0.18) unstable; urgency=low
1671 * Remote push (dgit rpush), a la debsign -r. Closes:#721185.
1673 Improved behaviours:
1674 * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
1675 -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges. Closes:#727200.
1676 * Abolish the sshdakls method and replace it with sshpsql: that is, ssh
1677 (to coccia, by default) and run sql commands on the ftpmaster
1678 database. This is faster and has fewer bugs but is vulnerable to db
1679 schema changes. Closes:#726955. Closes:#720170. Closes:#720176.
1680 * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
1681 Distribution field as the suite.
1682 * Command execution reports from --dry-run go to stderr.
1685 * Support --gpg=... to provide a replacement command for gpg.
1686 * Support --ssh=... and --ssh:... to affect how we run ssh.
1689 * When using sbuild, pass the arguments to mergechanges in the right
1690 order so that we use the correct Description (the _source one,
1691 not the one from sbuild which didn't get e.g. -v<version>).
1692 * push actually takes an optional suite, like it says in the synopsis.
1694 * Fix dgit --damp-run sbuild to actually work.
1695 * Fix the "shellquote" internal subroutine. The bugs in it ought not to
1696 have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.
1698 Documentation and message fixes:
1699 * manpage: Clarify comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
1700 * manpage: Remove comment in BUGS about lack of policy docs
1701 for Dgit field, which is specified now. Closes:#720201.
1702 * manpage: Make discussion of --existing-package less scary. The
1703 default archive access method no longer needs it. Closes:#720171.
1704 * Mention "git merge", not "git-merge", in helpful message.
1707 Internal and debugging improvements:
1708 * Report chdir actions in debugging output.
1709 * Improvements to implementation of --dry-run and --damp-run.
1710 * Some code motion and cleanups.

1725 * Do not grobble around in .git/refs/; instead, use git-show-ref.
1726 This avoids breaking when git makes packed refs. Closes:728893.
1727 * Clarify error message for missing refs/remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>.

1733 * Format `(3.0) quilt' fixup does not mind extraneous other files
1734 in the build tree (e.g., build products and logs). Closes: #727053.
1735 * Set autoflush on stdout, to get better ordering of debugging
1736 etc. output when stdout is redirected.
1737 * New --damp-run mode, for more convenient and fuller testing etc.

1741 dgit (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
1743 * Better handling of packages pushed using dgit and stuck in NEW.
1744 (And, use of `--new' is not needed with fetch.) Closes: #722199.
1745 * More comprehensive warnings in many cases of archive skew.
1746 * Implement `dgit help' as well as `--help'. Closes: #721661.
1747 * Provide `dgit version' and `--version'. Closes: #721654.

1753 * Include package name in tag message.
1754 * Create directory .git/dgit when needed during build. Closes: #721428.
1755 * Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser [Richard Hartmann]. Closes: #721404.
1756 These fields refer to the development branch, "master", on alioth,
1757 not to the dgit suite refs (which are not accessible to git clone).

1761 dgit (0.13) unstable; urgency=low
1763 * Reuse already-downloaded .orig files after checking their hashes.
1764 Closes: #720526. (This introduces a dependency on Digest::SHA.)
1765 * Do not always pointlessly fetch the .dsc twice. (That code was
1766 erroneously duplicated during editing, apparently.)
1767 * Remove DGET_UNPACK from the environment in case the user has set it.
1768 * Remove scary warning from Description.
1769 * When uploading to Debian, tell dput to upload to "ftp-master". This
1770 avoids problems with derivatives whose dput has a different default.
1772 * Fix some bugs in dgit fetch --dry-run which made dgit push
1773 --dry-run often not work at all.
1774 * Update the local tracking branch for the dgit remote, when pushing.
1776 * Fix references in manpage to old Vcs-Dgit-Master field name.
1777 * Reorganise manpage sections to be in a more conventional order.
1778 * New manpage section on FILES IN THE SOURCE PACKAGE BUT NOT IN GIT.

1786 * Improve error message for non-fast-forward push. Closes: #720896.
1787 * New --ignore-dirty option to skip noncritical check. Closes: #720895.
1788 * New --no-quilt-fixup option to suppress quilt fixup. RTFM.
1789 * Add Closes line for #720595 to changelog entry for 0.11.

1793 dgit (0.11) unstable; urgency=low
1795 * Location of dgit-repos is now git.debian.org:/git/dgit-repos/repos.
1796 Closes: #720525. The rename on the server side will break older
1798 * Fix bug which would make quilt patch fixup fail if git status
1800 * Autogenerated quilt patch fixup patch Description contains several
1801 recent git commits, rather than implying that the patch corresponds
1802 exactly to the top git commit.
1803 * Use "ftp.debian.org" not "http.debian.net" as the default Debian
1804 archive. (http.debian.net tends to defeat certain kinds of cacheing,
1805 and can also have more skew.)
1806 * dgit build uses dpkg-buildpackage; there is a dgit git-build
1807 for using git-buildpackage. Closes: #720595.
1808 * Better error message for use of UNRELEASED suite. Closes: #720523.
1809 * Do not canonicalise suite more than once. Related to: #720526.
1810 * Fix a badly open-coded copy of check_not_dirty. Closes: #720524.
1811 * Fix some bugs in building (eg build-source would fail to do the quilt
1812 fixup; the --clean check in build was wrong).
1813 * Add missing dependency on realpath.
1814 * git-build (git-buildpackage wrapper) does not bother canonicalising
1815 the suite if --git-ignore-branch is used.

1828 * More comprehensive workaround for `3.0 (quilt)'.
1829 * In push, double-check the .changes against the changelog.
1830 * Better error when source package contains .git. Closes: #720555.
1831 * Change our .dsc field name to `Dgit'. Relevant to #720201.
1832 * Fix bug handling our synthetic merges when we see them in
1833 the remote suite branch.
1834 * `3.0 (quilt)' fixup creates .pc/applied-patches since modern
1835 dpkg-source creates it even though old ones didn't always.

1844 copy _template rather than using mkdir and git init.
1846 * In push, do git fetch as well as archive fetch, or archive

1851 dgit (0.7) unstable; urgency=low
1853 * If dak ls, or rmadison, reports multiple versions, look for them
1854 all, and pick the newest .dsc that doesn't give 404.
1855 * Manpage formatting fix.
1856 * Name the local remote tracking branch remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>
1857 so that we avoid a warning from git about ambiguous branch names.

1879 * Support dgit-distro.<distro>.keyid config option.
1880 * Revert change to ssh to alioth CNAME, as the recommended CNAME
1881 is to something with no write access to the fs and the new CNAME
1882 has not yet been set up. This reintroduces #720172 :-/.

1891 * Assorted manpage fixes and improvements.

1893 * Much better error messages.
1894 * Better error checking when parsing RFC822-style control data.
