1 dgit (9.0~) unstable; urgency=medium
3 dgit - low-impact incompatible change:
4 * Drop support for, and testing of, dgit versions which use old tag name
5 (debian/V; now that is maintainer view and dgit is archive/debian/V).
6 The new tags came in in dgit 2.0 in October 2016. No version of dgit
7 without them was in any Debian release. We don't expect there are any
8 sites using old servers which do not support the new format, or anyone
9 using a dgit client older than 2.x who cannot upgrade.
11 git-debrebase fixes [Niko Tyni]:
12 * Fix `git-debrebase convert-from-dgit-view <upstream>', which
13 would crash due to an argument parser bug. Closes:#930214.
14 * git-debrebase(1): typo fix. Closes:#930215.
16 dgit - new capabilities:
17 * Support split view with native packages, and with all quilt modes.
18 Now we distinguish "split view" (meaning separate dgit branch) from
19 "splitting quilt modes" (eg --quilt-unapplied).
20 [Prompted in part by enquiries from Sam Hartman] Closes:#926640.
21 * Support for bare debian/ directory (aka packaging-only) git branches
22 Ie, --quilt=baredebian[+tarball]. [Thanks for info from Shengjing
23 Zhu, and docs and UI contributions/review from Sean Whitton.]
24 Closes:#903392. Closes:#931253.
27 * Fix --dgit-view-save option alias, which never worked.
28 (--save-dgit-view worked, and still does, though.)
29 * i18n: Do not translate import commit messages.
31 dgit - other documentation improvements [Sean Whitton]:
32 * Expand on description of --include-dirty. Closes:#930922.
33 * dgit-maint-*(7): Suggest --name-status --diff-filter. Closes:#930956.
34 * dgit-maint-*(7): Using untagged upstream commits. Closes:#930964.
36 dgit - minor consequences of these other changes:
37 * Actually properly reject invalid quilt modes found in git config.
38 (Previously they might be accepted and then cause malfunctions.)
39 * Reject split brain quilt modes with single-debian-patch.
40 (Previously this would malfunction; now we reject it.)
41 * i18n: Add translator notes about ASCII art changes display.
42 * Drop "dgit view: changes are required..." message.
43 * Some other minor changes to quilt fixup error handling.
44 * Changes to debugging output related to quilt modes and split view.
45 * Introduce rpush protocol version 5. Minimum version is now 4.
46 * Considerable internal rearrangement of quilt fixup code.
47 * Considerable test suite work including new tests.
50 * dgit-repos-policy-debian: Test taint removal. Closes:#929249.

94 dgit - Behavioural changes with compatibility implications:
95 * Pass --no-source-only-changes to pbuilder and cowbuilder
96 Closes:#904862. This option was only recently added to
97 pbuilder. For compatibility with old pbuilder, say, eg
98 `dgit --pbuilder!:--no-source-only-changes'.
99 * With --clean=git etc, check the tree is clean even before building
100 source in dgit's private directory. Specifically, with eg dgit sbuild
101 or dgit build-source. dgit prior to 6.0 would always clean the tree.
102 dgit 6.0 to 8.1 would ignore untracked files completely, leading to
103 occasional lossage. The pre-6.0 behaviour can be requested with
104 --clean=git,always etc. (aka -wga, -wgfa). Closes:#914317.
106 dgit - New features, bugfixes and improved behaviours:
107 * Allow uppercase (ascii) letters in multi-orig components,
108 as is allowed by the spec in dpkg-source(1). Closes:#916926.
109 * Honour --program!:option to suppress options passed by default.
110 * clone: Create destination directory before using network.
111 * Check early that build-products-dir is accessible. Closes:#913648.
112 * Look for origs in `..' as well as build-products-dir, and
113 there are any, link them into the bpd. Closes:#904878.
114 * Provide new --git[-ff],always clean mode (as discussed above).
116 i18n - new translations [Frans Spiesschaert]:
117 * nl, dgit-user(7). Closes:#918253.
118 * nl, messages. Closes:#917148.
121 * dgit(1): Fix documentation of .quilt-mode config.
122 * dgit(1): Fix a formatting typo (spurious .TP). Closes:#917194.
123 * dgit-user(7): Fix formatting error in comment about multi-arch.
124 * dgit-maint-debrebase(7): handle DFSG-filtering for a new package.
125 [Sean Whitton] Closes:#915973.
127 Error message improvements:
128 * dgit: When reporting no such package, say `source package'.
129 * dgit: Fix reference to -wdn/-wddn in a message.
130 * dgit: cleaning: Minorly improved handling of note about ignores.
131 * dgit-repos-policy-debian: Remove duplicated text from force
132 report message. Closes:#913676.

136 * po4a, pairwise-pocheck: Fix recognition of bare `<...>'.

168 dgit (8.0) unstable; urgency=medium
170 dgit - Behavioural change with compatibility implications:
171 * Check (with --clean=dpkg-source[-d], ie, by default) that rules
172 clean does not leave untracked files (ie, trip if it looks like
173 a `git add' may have been forgotten). dgit will now fail in
174 some situations where previously it would have just carried on.
175 * Honour new clean modes --dpkg-source[-d],no-check aka -wdn / -wddn
176 which suppress this check. (Whether the untracked files are
177 used or disregarded depends on --include-dirty.)
178 * Honour new .clean-mode-newer access config option, to allow git
179 configs to be compatible with both new and old dgits.
180 See relevant parts of dgit(1) for more information.
182 dgit - Improved behaviours:
183 * Better handling of cross-filesystem operations, including
184 build-products-dir on a different fs. Closes:#910730.
185 * Change to git toplevel dir before starting. Closes:#910724.
186 * Provide --clean=check,ignores aka -wci.
187 * Provide --clean=dpkg-source[-d],all-check aka -wda / -wdda.
189 dgit - Important bugfixes:
190 * Check that tree does not contain untracked files (depending on clean
191 mode) when building source using git branch rather than using working
192 tree. In particular, honour --clean=check. Closes:#910705.
193 * Also apply that new cleanliness check during build-source or
194 push-source etc. with --clean=dpkg-source; even though rules
195 clean was not run. See above. Again, -wdn / -wddn may be needed.
196 * dgit: Forbid source building with --include-dirty and non-.. bpd,
197 which can seriously malfunction. Closes:#910725; see #910740.
199 dgit - Additional sanity checks:
200 * quilt linearisation: Stop at debian/source/format changes.
201 * quilt fixup: Cope if gdr analysis finds origin. Closes:#910687.
202 * Add missing error check in single-debian-patch handling.
203 * Refuse to work if critical files have uncommitted changes.
204 * Reject all git config options containing newlines.
205 * Better error message for not in git tree. (For git-debrebase too.)
207 dgit - Minor bugfixes:
208 * Fix spelling errors etc. in messages.
209 * Replace mention of alioth by salsa in a message.
210 * clean_tree: confess rather than die on unknown clean mode.
211 * Add missing \n to crash from git_cat_file. (git-debrebase too.)
214 * dgit(1): Document that cleaning is sometimes not needed and
215 is therefore not done.
216 * README.md: Add this document for the benefit of Salsa.
217 * po/README: Mention -k10 threshold.
218 * po/README: Give a pointer to salsa; remind the translator to commit.
219 * dgit(1): Fix spelling errors.
220 * dgit(7): Fix spelling errors.
221 * dgit-sponsorship(7): Fix spelling error.
223 Consequential changes:
224 * Internal refactoring to support all these changes.
225 * Tests adjusted to correspond to, and somewhat test, these changes.
226 * Slight reorganisation to documentation of --clean=dpkg-source etc.
229 * Makefile: Provide i18n-commit target.
230 * po/list-documents: Set translation threshold to 10%.

508 New features [Sean Whitton]:
509 * Introduce dgit.default.build-products-dir git configuration key.
511 * Die earlier, and with a more helpful message, if the user tries to
512 include dirty changes when building a source package in split brain
515 dgit behavioural changes:
516 * dgit: Always build the source package ourselves, rather than
517 sometimes leaving that to the builder command. dgit will now
518 usually generate *_multi.changes rather than *_$arch.changes.
519 * dgit: Build source packages in a private directory, except when
520 the user passes --include-dirty [Sean Whitton].
521 - dgit push-source no longer cleans the tree [Sean Whitton].
522 * dgit: Rename --ignore-dirty to --include-dirty (leaving the old
523 name supported as a deprecated alias).
525 Test suite improvements:
526 * test suite: unset VISUAL, which interferes. Closes:#904308.
527 * Honour DGIT_SCHROOT_CHROOT to set the schroot to use for the sbuild
529 * Support tests/run-all --progressive.
530 * Drop now-obsolete *-asplit tests.
533 * apt-get method: when apt does not update release files,
534 unconditionally print hint about noatime. Closes:#851873.
535 * messages: Be a lot more friendly about NEW in particular,
536 and also add a couple of `please's. Closes:#904448.
537 * Make --build-products-dir (and the new config key) actually work.
538 Closes:#863582. [ Ian and Sean. ]
539 * dgit: Many important internal rearrangemnts relating to source
540 package production and building.

567 * git-debrebase convert-from-gbp: Look for dgit-generated tags so we can

569 * git-debrebase convert-from-gbp: Check that the result will not

571 the ff pseudomerge into -fdiverged. Related to #903132.

609 dgit (5.6) unstable; urgency=medium
611 * Merge the experimental branch containing the fianl
612 version of the test suite gnupg workarounds. Empirically,
613 - The tests now pass (most of the time, at least) in
614 current Debian unstable, whereas 5.5's fail utterly.
615 - There is still occasional lossage. So when running tests
616 in a loop (eg to test ever commit), it is still good to set
617 DGIT_TEST_RETRY_COUNT=3 (say).
619 * test suite: Test that manpages format with only expected warnings.

685 that this is because --since-version was not specified.
687 * When quilt fixup fails because of discrepancies, print a
688 git diff rune which will show them. Closes:#865446.
689 * When fetch or push wants git fetch (other than in a situation where it
690 happes to be a noop) but --dry-run was specified, fail with an
691 explanation, rather than looping with a false coplaint about git
692 fetch. Closes:#871317.
693 * --overwrite now no longer crashes if there is nothing to overwrite

699 * git-debrebase interop: Actually tolerate git-debrebase make-patches
700 exiting with status 7.
702 dgit vcs-git handling improvements:
703 * Provide `update-vcs-git' subcommand, for creating and adjusting the
704 vcs-git remote url. Useful for transition from alioth to salsa.
706 * Print a warning to stderr on `dgit fetch sid', if your vcs-git
707 remote url disagrees with what's in sid's .dsc.

752 dgit-maint-debrebase(7). ]
755 * Fix the exit status of programs in dgit.deb, to avoid the Perl
756 misfeature which sometimes copies $! to the exit status.
757 * When checking that the tree is clean, check the git index too.
758 * In quilt_fixup_multipatch, work around git checkout paths
759 not deleting files. (Hypothetical bug AFAIAA.)
760 * Respect --quilt=nofix even if single-debian-patch.
763 * "confess" when we die due to a warning, rather than symply dieing.

798 New features [Sean Whitton]:
799 * New 'push-source' subcommand for source-only uploads. Closes:#848931
800 * When dgit builds a source package, such as in the 'build-source'
801 subcommand, it now bypasses dpkg-buildpackage and invokes dpkg-source
802 directly. This avoids a _source.buildinfo file in the .changes, which
803 doesn't make sense when using dgit. See
804 <https://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2017/06/msg00005.html>.
806 Documentation improvements:
807 * dgit(1): Add a bit more rationale (polemic, even). Closes:#874221.
808 * Recommend mk-build-deps rather than apt-get build-dep.
809 Suggestion from Nikolaus Rath. Closes:#863361.
810 * dgit-maint-merge(7): many updates. [Sean Whitton]

813 Sean Whitton] Closes:#856402.
816 * When source discrepancy involves file mode changes, report them
817 specially. Closes:#886442.
818 * In split brain mode, with unexpected diffs, print dgit view
819 commitid in suggested diff rune. (HEAD is wrong.) Closes:#886443.
820 * Fix message about missing quilt cache entry to refer to
821 HEAD rather than tree, since dgit needs a commit. Closes:#884646.
822 * Fix grammar error in 4.1 changelog entry. [Sean Whitton]
823 * Remove some whitespace "errors". [Sean Whitton]
826 * Remove dependency alternative on realpath (package last existed in
827 Debian wheezy). Closes:#877552.
830 * dpkgsourceignores-docs: Correct restriction (so autopkgtest
831 won't try to run it).
832 * Additional workarounds for gnupg races (#868550) including
833 retrying each individual test once, and more sophisticated
834 wrapper for gpg (with locking and, sometimes saves stdin).
835 * oldnewtagalt: Fix regression when running outside git tree,

853 Important improvements to dgit:
854 * Support for `git worktree' worktrees. There may still be
855 bugs; the tests for this are not very comprehensive. And
856 worktrees on different filesystems may not work; that's a
857 matter for the future. Closes:#868515.
858 * Change the dpkg-source -i argument to exclude exactly the right
859 set of things. (Sadly this is not a simple rune.)
861 Other improvements to dgit:
862 * New print-dpkg-source-ignores option to print the big rune
863 you need to pass to dpkg-source to make it work exactly right.
864 * Properly shell-quote the --git-builder argument to gbp.
867 * dgit-user(7): Provide information about how to use sbuild.
868 Quite ugly due to #868527. Closes:#868526.
869 * dgit-user(7): Fixed example rune to use curl (which prints
870 to stdout, as the rune expects). [reported by Simon Tatham]
873 * Do not leave many clog-* files in .git/dgit.
876 * using-these: New script to help with ad-hoc-testing.
877 * Refactoring in preparation for push-source [Sean Whitton].
880 * sbuild-gitish: New test case to check running sbuild from git
881 * Work around gnupg agent connection races by having our stunt
882 gpg wrapper simply try running gpg again, once, if it exits 2.
883 This does not fully suppress the bug but it does significantly reduce
885 * Other tests for new features.

1514 Incompatible change:
1515 * dgit sbuild: does not pass -A to sbuild. Consequently the default
1516 build is now simply sbuild's default. With older sbuilds it was
1517 possible to override dgit's -A by passing another option. But this
1518 has been changed recently and now this default setting is very awkward
1519 to change for the dgit user.

1521 * New tag format (for dgit view) archive/debian/VERSION.
1524 * --quilt=gbp, --quilt=dpm, --quilt=unpacked: Introduce facility for
1525 split view (dgit/mainiainer view), to improve compatibility with some
1528 New checks and improved behaviours in dgit:

1531 expect, before calling mergechanges. Re:#800060.
1532 * dgit sbuild: Rename the used-up .changes files to `.inmulti' to
1533 avoid accidental use of the wrong one (by software, or by users).
1534 * dgit sbuild: Check that the binary .changes file doesn't contain a
1536 * Introduce --rm-old-changes to delete previous builds' changes files.
1537 * Remove any pre-existing _source.changes file before building source,
1539 * No longer tolerate a multitude of .changes files when doing push.
1540 Instead, insist on a single one. Closes:#800110.
1541 * dgit sbuild no longer deletes extranious .changes files; instead
1542 we rely on --rm-old-changes, or failing that, fail early.
1543 * When doing quilt linearisation, treat upstream .gitignores not
1544 in the toplevel the same way we treat ones in the toplevel.
1545 * When automatically generating quilt patch, honour GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
1546 for filename creation (makes filename deterministic in test suite).
1547 * New --overwrite option, replaces need to for user to use
1548 git merge -s ours. Closes:#838718.
1549 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, make patches that
1550 look quite like git-format-patch output (rather than strange things
1551 based on an obselete interpretation of DEP-3).
1552 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, honour (and strip)
1553 any Gbp-Pq headers (that we understand).
1554 * Several dgit-generated commits now have slightly better annotations
1555 from dgit about what it was doing.
1556 * Before committing to push, check that .dsc and .changes correspond.
1558 * Better error message if non-split-brain patch stack no longer
1559 applies (due to new upstream version, or user messing with it).
1561 * Better error message if HEAD contains changes unrepresentable
1562 by `3.0 (quilt)'. Closes:#834618.

1570 * dgit-infrastructure has, and uses, its own copies of the perl modules.

1584 directory before running rmtree on it. Closes:#796773.
1585 * Do not call "warn" on failure of cleanup handler in END block

1610 them (lossily) to ascii. Closes:#834807.

1614 file. Instead, simply tolerate the absence of the log file.

1844 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
1846 * Client uses new infrastructure:
1847 - Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
1848 gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
1850 - Old versions of dgit will stop working when the server-side handle is
1853 * dgit git trees no longer contain .pc for format `3.0 (quilt)' source
1854 packages. Closes:#764606.
1855 - It is deleted whenever we find it.
1856 - Older versions of dgit will choke on trees without .pc.
1857 - (When doing quilt fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary
1858 directory so that we can do dpkg-source --comit.)
1860 * All users are urged to upgrade ASAP.
1862 Other significant improvements:
1864 * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
1865 series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
1867 * When receiving a push with dgit-repos-server, update the server's
1868 refs/heads/master if we are pushing to what the distro regards as a
1869 relevant branch, and the push would ff master. Closes:#728209.
1871 * For non-Debian distros, distro version release tags contain distro
1872 name a la DEP-14 (rather than hardcoding `debian/').
1874 * Set up a merge driver for debian/changelog. Closes:#769291.
1876 * --clean=git and --clean=none cause dgit to pass -nc to
1877 dpkg-buildpackage, suppressing calls to the package's clean target.
1878 Also, expand the documentation in this area slightly. Closes:#768590.
1880 * Provide --clean=git-ff (aka -wgf), which is useful for dgit itself (!)
1884 * Reduce some noise output and improve the clarity of some messages.
1885 * Be more careful about tag updates during fetch: only update tags
1886 referring to uploads to distro we are trying to fetch from.
1887 * Change realpath dependency to `coreutils (>= 8.23-1~) | realpath'
1892 * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
1893 * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
1894 * Strip `-b <branch>' from contents of Vcs-Git header, when setting up
1895 the vcs-git remote. Closes:#759374.
1896 * Do not offer wget as an alternative dependency to curl. We always
1897 unconditionally invoke curl and have no code to use wget.
1899 * Complain about lack of cuddled values for value-taking single-letter
1900 options, rather than thinking the user meat an empty value.
1902 * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witth -wn, -wg,
1904 * Fix inaccurate error message when archive's git hash is not an
1905 ancestor of git repo's git hash.
1906 * Detect and bomb out on vendor-specific `3.0 (quilt)' patch series.
1907 * Fix the rules clean target to remove test results and output.
1909 Documentation improvements:
1911 * Break out dgit(7) from dgit(1).
1912 * Provide example workflow for dgit rpush. Closes:#763334.
1913 (Also part of the fix for #768470.)
1914 * Document that dgit repos are cloneable with git, in dgit(1)
1915 section MODEL. [Andreas Barth.] Closes:#768470.
1916 * Better documentation for quilt series handling.
1917 * Document under `dgit push' that it is best to build with dgit too.

1921 Behind-the-scenes work:
1923 * Use ftpmasterapi archive query method.
1924 (Closes:#727702. Also partly obsoletes #768470.)
1925 * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et
1926 al. Client users probably don't want this stuff. Also, it provides a
1927 convenient way to publish the dependencies.
1928 * Many many bugfixes to the server side (dpkg-repos-server et al.).
1929 * Add :..; prefix to ssh remote commands, for the benefit of future
1930 forced command wrappers. Implicitly, this defines a new ssh-based
1931 command protocol. Closes:#720174, #720175.

1989 * Better reporting of child exit statuses (esp. deaths due to signals).

1991 subprocess died and report differently if so. Closes:#736528.
1992 * Fixed a manpage typo.

2002 the push of the suite branch ref.

2020 in the error message, to be its child.

2076 dgit (0.18) unstable; urgency=low
2079 * Remote push (dgit rpush), a la debsign -r. Closes:#721185.
2081 Improved behaviours:
2082 * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
2083 -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges. Closes:#727200.
2084 * Abolish the sshdakls method and replace it with sshpsql: that is, ssh
2085 (to coccia, by default) and run sql commands on the ftpmaster
2086 database. This is faster and has fewer bugs but is vulnerable to db
2087 schema changes. Closes:#726955. Closes:#720170. Closes:#720176.
2088 * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
2089 Distribution field as the suite.
2090 * Command execution reports from --dry-run go to stderr.
2093 * Support --gpg=... to provide a replacement command for gpg.
2094 * Support --ssh=... and --ssh:... to affect how we run ssh.
2097 * When using sbuild, pass the arguments to mergechanges in the right
2098 order so that we use the correct Description (the _source one,
2099 not the one from sbuild which didn't get e.g. -v<version>).
2100 * push actually takes an optional suite, like it says in the synopsis.
2102 * Fix dgit --damp-run sbuild to actually work.
2103 * Fix the "shellquote" internal subroutine. The bugs in it ought not to
2104 have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.
2106 Documentation and message fixes:
2107 * manpage: Clarify comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
2108 * manpage: Remove comment in BUGS about lack of policy docs
2109 for Dgit field, which is specified now. Closes:#720201.
2110 * manpage: Make discussion of --existing-package less scary. The
2111 default archive access method no longer needs it. Closes:#720171.
2112 * Mention "git merge", not "git-merge", in helpful message.
2115 Internal and debugging improvements:
2116 * Report chdir actions in debugging output.
2117 * Improvements to implementation of --dry-run and --damp-run.
2118 * Some code motion and cleanups.

2131 dgit (0.17) unstable; urgency=high
2133 * Do not grobble around in .git/refs/; instead, use git-show-ref.
2134 This avoids breaking when git makes packed refs. Closes:728893.
2135 * Clarify error message for missing refs/remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>.

2139 dgit (0.16) unstable; urgency=high
2141 * Format `(3.0) quilt' fixup does not mind extraneous other files
2142 in the build tree (e.g., build products and logs). Closes: #727053.
2143 * Set autoflush on stdout, to get better ordering of debugging
2144 etc. output when stdout is redirected.
2145 * New --damp-run mode, for more convenient and fuller testing etc.

2149 dgit (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
2151 * Better handling of packages pushed using dgit and stuck in NEW.
2152 (And, use of `--new' is not needed with fetch.) Closes: #722199.
2153 * More comprehensive warnings in many cases of archive skew.
2154 * Implement `dgit help' as well as `--help'. Closes: #721661.
2155 * Provide `dgit version' and `--version'. Closes: #721654.

2159 dgit (0.14) unstable; urgency=low
2161 * Include package name in tag message.
2162 * Create directory .git/dgit when needed during build. Closes: #721428.
2163 * Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser [Richard Hartmann]. Closes: #721404.
2164 These fields refer to the development branch, "master", on alioth,
2165 not to the dgit suite refs (which are not accessible to git clone).

2169 dgit (0.13) unstable; urgency=low
2171 * Reuse already-downloaded .orig files after checking their hashes.
2172 Closes: #720526. (This introduces a dependency on Digest::SHA.)
2173 * Do not always pointlessly fetch the .dsc twice. (That code was
2174 erroneously duplicated during editing, apparently.)
2175 * Remove DGET_UNPACK from the environment in case the user has set it.
2176 * Remove scary warning from Description.
2177 * When uploading to Debian, tell dput to upload to "ftp-master". This
2178 avoids problems with derivatives whose dput has a different default.
2180 * Fix some bugs in dgit fetch --dry-run which made dgit push
2181 --dry-run often not work at all.
2182 * Update the local tracking branch for the dgit remote, when pushing.
2184 * Fix references in manpage to old Vcs-Dgit-Master field name.
2185 * Reorganise manpage sections to be in a more conventional order.
2186 * New manpage section on FILES IN THE SOURCE PACKAGE BUT NOT IN GIT.

2191 dgit (0.12) unstable; urgency=low
2193 * Cope with packages with epoch. Closes: #720897.
2194 * Improve error message for non-fast-forward push. Closes: #720896.
2195 * New --ignore-dirty option to skip noncritical check. Closes: #720895.
2196 * New --no-quilt-fixup option to suppress quilt fixup. RTFM.
2197 * Add Closes line for #720595 to changelog entry for 0.11.

2201 dgit (0.11) unstable; urgency=low
2203 * Location of dgit-repos is now git.debian.org:/git/dgit-repos/repos.
2204 Closes: #720525. The rename on the server side will break older
2206 * Fix bug which would make quilt patch fixup fail if git status
2208 * Autogenerated quilt patch fixup patch Description contains several
2209 recent git commits, rather than implying that the patch corresponds
2210 exactly to the top git commit.
2211 * Use "ftp.debian.org" not "http.debian.net" as the default Debian
2212 archive. (http.debian.net tends to defeat certain kinds of cacheing,
2213 and can also have more skew.)
2214 * dgit build uses dpkg-buildpackage; there is a dgit git-build
2215 for using git-buildpackage. Closes: #720595.
2216 * Better error message for use of UNRELEASED suite. Closes: #720523.
2217 * Do not canonicalise suite more than once. Related to: #720526.
2218 * Fix a badly open-coded copy of check_not_dirty. Closes: #720524.
2219 * Fix some bugs in building (eg build-source would fail to do the quilt
2220 fixup; the --clean check in build was wrong).
2221 * Add missing dependency on realpath.
2222 * git-build (git-buildpackage wrapper) does not bother canonicalising
2223 the suite if --git-ignore-branch is used.

2229 * Create .pc/applied-patches - do not empty it (!)

2233 dgit (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
2235 * New cleaning arrangements.
2236 * More comprehensive workaround for `3.0 (quilt)'.
2237 * In push, double-check the .changes against the changelog.
2238 * Better error when source package contains .git. Closes: #720555.
2239 * Change our .dsc field name to `Dgit'. Relevant to #720201.
2240 * Fix bug handling our synthetic merges when we see them in
2241 the remote suite branch.
2242 * `3.0 (quilt)' fixup creates .pc/applied-patches since modern
2243 dpkg-source creates it even though old ones didn't always.

2247 dgit (0.8) unstable; urgency=low
2249 * Fix comparison of archive's .dsc's hash and git branch head
2251 * When creating repos in dgit-repos (using the ssh-cmd method),
2252 copy _template rather than using mkdir and git init.
2254 * In push, do git fetch as well as archive fetch, or archive

2259 dgit (0.7) unstable; urgency=low
2261 * If dak ls, or rmadison, reports multiple versions, look for them
2262 all, and pick the newest .dsc that doesn't give 404.
2263 * Manpage formatting fix.
2264 * Name the local remote tracking branch remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>
2265 so that we avoid a warning from git about ambiguous branch names.

2279 bugs of which I'm aware are now properly represented in the BTS.)

2283 dgit (0.4~pre2) experimental; urgency=low
2285 * Mangle debian/<version> tags the way git-buildpackage does
2286 (as of git-buildpackage 0.5.5, 3c6bbd0f4992f8da).
2287 * Support dgit-distro.<distro>.keyid config option.
2288 * Revert change to ssh to alioth CNAME, as the recommended CNAME
2289 is to something with no write access to the fs and the new CNAME
2290 has not yet been set up. This reintroduces #720172 :-/.

2296 * Use dgit.debian.net vhost on alioth. Closes:#720172.
2297 * Usage message. Closes:#720085.
2298 * Provide "dgit sbuild".
2299 * Assorted manpage fixes and improvements.
2300 * Fail if a required config item is missing.
2301 * Much better error messages.
2302 * Better error checking when parsing RFC822-style control data.
2303 * Better checking that the supplied .dsc and debian/changes correspond.
2304 * Ordering improvement in push: don't add dsc field until git push done.
2305 * New --distro option (helps with unknown suites).
