70 New features [Sean Whitton]:
71 * Introduce dgit.default.build-products-dir git configuration key.
73 * Die earlier, and with a more helpful message, if the user tries to
74 include dirty changes when building a source package in split brain
77 dgit behavioural changes:
78 * dgit: Always build the source package ourselves, rather than
79 sometimes leaving that to the builder command. dgit will now
80 usually generate *_multi.changes rather than *_$arch.changes.
81 * dgit: Build source packages in a private directory, except when
82 the user passes --include-dirty [Sean Whitton].
83 - dgit push-source no longer cleans the tree [Sean Whitton].
84 * dgit: Rename --ignore-dirty to --include-dirty (leaving the old
85 name supported as a deprecated alias).
87 Test suite improvements:
88 * test suite: unset VISUAL, which interferes. Closes:#904308.
89 * Honour DGIT_SCHROOT_CHROOT to set the schroot to use for the sbuild
91 * Support tests/run-all --progressive.
92 * Drop now-obsolete *-asplit tests.
95 * apt-get method: when apt does not update release files,
96 unconditionally print hint about noatime. Closes:#851873.
97 * messages: Be a lot more friendly about NEW in particular,
98 and also add a couple of `please's. Closes:#904448.

175 - The tests now pass (most of the time, at least) in

360 New features [Sean Whitton]:
361 * New 'push-source' subcommand for source-only uploads. Closes:#848931
362 * When dgit builds a source package, such as in the 'build-source'
363 subcommand, it now bypasses dpkg-buildpackage and invokes dpkg-source
364 directly. This avoids a _source.buildinfo file in the .changes, which
365 doesn't make sense when using dgit. See
366 <https://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2017/06/msg00005.html>.
368 Documentation improvements:

380 * In split brain mode, with unexpected diffs, print dgit view
381 commitid in suggested diff rune. (HEAD is wrong.) Closes:#886443.

383 HEAD rather than tree, since dgit needs a commit. Closes:#884646.

420 * Change the dpkg-source -i argument to exclude exactly the right
421 set of things. (Sadly this is not a simple rune.)
423 Other improvements to dgit:
424 * New print-dpkg-source-ignores option to print the big rune
425 you need to pass to dpkg-source to make it work exactly right.
426 * Properly shell-quote the --git-builder argument to gbp.
429 * dgit-user(7): Provide information about how to use sbuild.
430 Quite ugly due to #868527. Closes:#868526.
431 * dgit-user(7): Fixed example rune to use curl (which prints

439 * Refactoring in preparation for push-source [Sean Whitton].
442 * sbuild-gitish: New test case to check running sbuild from git
443 * Work around gnupg agent connection races by having our stunt
444 gpg wrapper simply try running gpg again, once, if it exits 2.

1102 Instead, insist on a single one. Closes:#800110.
1103 * dgit sbuild no longer deletes extranious .changes files; instead
1104 we rely on --rm-old-changes, or failing that, fail early.
1105 * When doing quilt linearisation, treat upstream .gitignores not
1106 in the toplevel the same way we treat ones in the toplevel.
1107 * When automatically generating quilt patch, honour GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
1108 for filename creation (makes filename deterministic in test suite).
1109 * New --overwrite option, replaces need to for user to use
1110 git merge -s ours. Closes:#838718.
1111 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, make patches that
1112 look quite like git-format-patch output (rather than strange things
1113 based on an obselete interpretation of DEP-3).
1114 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, honour (and strip)
1115 any Gbp-Pq headers (that we understand).
1116 * Several dgit-generated commits now have slightly better annotations
1117 from dgit about what it was doing.
1118 * Before committing to push, check that .dsc and .changes correspond.
1120 * Better error message if non-split-brain patch stack no longer
1121 applies (due to new upstream version, or user messing with it).
1123 * Better error message if HEAD contains changes unrepresentable
1124 by `3.0 (quilt)'. Closes:#834618.

1132 * dgit-infrastructure has, and uses, its own copies of the perl modules.
1133 This avoids introducing a versioned dependency between dgit and
1134 dgit-infrastructure (and also makes it easier to test cross-version
1138 * Document the dgit-distro.DISTRO.quilt-mode config setting.
1139 * Clarify the --clean= options' documentation. Closes:#800054.
1140 * Discourage use of the --PROGRAM:OPTION escape hatch. (Apropos
1141 of various bug reports including #800060 and #833025.)
1142 * Document the expected form of HEAD for each --quilt= mode.
1145 * When cleaning up after failed clone, stat the to-be-cleaned-up
1146 directory before running rmtree on it. Closes:#796773.
1147 * Do not call "warn" on failure of cleanup handler in END block
1148 (since warn has been made fatal and aborts the cleanup chain).
1149 * Print better error message (with `fail' rather than `die') if
1150 `dgit clone' cannot create the destination directory.
1151 * Properly substitute $changesfile in one of the `You can retry'
1152 messages. Closes:#800078.
1153 * Pass --ch:* and -v options to dpkg-buildpackage when building
1154 source. Fixes bad Perl poetry syntax. Closes:#829121.
1155 * When synthesing a commit from a .dsc from the archive, stop
1156 internal git reset from printing a confusing message about HEAD.
1157 * Turn off git gc in the private working areas.
1158 * Do not fail to do some important quilt processing in some
1160 * Fix two calls to chdir without proper error checking.
1161 * Fix a couple of bugs in error reporting.
1162 * Fix several bugs in .orig detection/recognition.
1163 * Tidy up refs/dgit-fetch/ after dgit fetch (if successful).
1164 * Fix handling of in-archive copies.
1165 * Don't break if user has push.followTags=true. Closes:#827878.
1166 * Arrange for the special dgit remote to be skipped by git fetch --all
1167 etc. And no longer configure a fetch spec, since it won't work
1168 anyway. Closes:#827892.
1169 * Allow local git config options to override user-global ones,
1170 as is proper. Closes:#835858.
1171 * When generating patch filenames from titles, first transliterate
1172 them (lossily) to ascii. Closes:#834807.
1175 * When sbuild fails, do not crash due to sed not finding the log
1176 file. Instead, simply tolerate the absence of the log file.
1177 * Put --no-arch-all in build-modes-sbuild act, not only its real_act.
1178 Cosmetic change only.
1179 * Set GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE and increment them
1180 explicitly in drs-push-rejects test. This avoids date dependencies
1181 which can cause that test to fail on fast computers.
1182 * Remove some spurios .debs from the example_1.0.tar.
1183 * Increase sqlite_busy_timeout in debpolicy-dbretry, because old
1184 zealot is very slow and we need to give the other processes time
1185 to rollback and release the lock.
1186 * Test quilt single-debian-patch.
1187 * Provide `tartree-edit gitfetchinfo' etc. to help with comparing
1188 different test case git working tree tarballs.
1189 * Test dgit-repos-policy-debian with multiple (identical, as it happens)
1191 * Provide better log output for certain failures.
1192 * Many new tests (especially for new functionality).
1193 * Add missing debhelper (>=8) to test suite's global Depends.
1194 * tstunt arrangements: Fix mishandling of PERLLIB, etc.
1195 * tstunt-parsechangelog: Produce Timestamp field (like official one
1197 * Do not fail when git requires --allow-unrelated-histories.

1223 --dry-run by avoiding pulling it back to your HEAD.
1224 * quilt-fixup checks that the git tree is clean, as for build-prep.

1228 removed by rules clean.

1406 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
1408 * Client uses new infrastructure:
1409 - Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
1410 gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
1412 - Old versions of dgit will stop working when the server-side handle is
1415 * dgit git trees no longer contain .pc for format `3.0 (quilt)' source
1416 packages. Closes:#764606.
1417 - It is deleted whenever we find it.
1418 - Older versions of dgit will choke on trees without .pc.
1419 - (When doing quilt fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary
1420 directory so that we can do dpkg-source --comit.)
1422 * All users are urged to upgrade ASAP.
1424 Other significant improvements:
1426 * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
1427 series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
1429 * When receiving a push with dgit-repos-server, update the server's
1430 refs/heads/master if we are pushing to what the distro regards as a
1431 relevant branch, and the push would ff master. Closes:#728209.
1433 * For non-Debian distros, distro version release tags contain distro
1434 name a la DEP-14 (rather than hardcoding `debian/').
1436 * Set up a merge driver for debian/changelog. Closes:#769291.
1438 * --clean=git and --clean=none cause dgit to pass -nc to
1439 dpkg-buildpackage, suppressing calls to the package's clean target.
1440 Also, expand the documentation in this area slightly. Closes:#768590.
1442 * Provide --clean=git-ff (aka -wgf), which is useful for dgit itself (!)
1446 * Reduce some noise output and improve the clarity of some messages.
1447 * Be more careful about tag updates during fetch: only update tags
1448 referring to uploads to distro we are trying to fetch from.
1449 * Change realpath dependency to `coreutils (>= 8.23-1~) | realpath'
1454 * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
1455 * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
1456 * Strip `-b <branch>' from contents of Vcs-Git header, when setting up
1457 the vcs-git remote. Closes:#759374.
1458 * Do not offer wget as an alternative dependency to curl. We always
1459 unconditionally invoke curl and have no code to use wget.
1461 * Complain about lack of cuddled values for value-taking single-letter
1462 options, rather than thinking the user meat an empty value.
1464 * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witth -wn, -wg,
1466 * Fix inaccurate error message when archive's git hash is not an
1467 ancestor of git repo's git hash.
1468 * Detect and bomb out on vendor-specific `3.0 (quilt)' patch series.
1469 * Fix the rules clean target to remove test results and output.
1471 Documentation improvements:
1473 * Break out dgit(7) from dgit(1).

1483 Behind-the-scenes work:

1487 * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et
1488 al. Client users probably don't want this stuff. Also, it provides a
1489 convenient way to publish the dependencies.
1490 * Many many bugfixes to the server side (dpkg-repos-server et al.).
1491 * Add :..; prefix to ssh remote commands, for the benefit of future
1492 forced command wrappers. Implicitly, this defines a new ssh-based
1493 command protocol. Closes:#720174, #720175.

1551 * Better reporting of child exit statuses (esp. deaths due to signals).
1552 * In rpush, on protocol error talking to build host, check if the
1553 subprocess died and report differently if so. Closes:#736528.
1554 * Fixed a manpage typo.

1564 the push of the suite branch ref.

1589 Support for Debian backports suites:
1590 * New quirks infrastructure in configuration and internals,
1591 for suites (or perhaps distros) which are a bit like others.
1592 * Use correct default archive location.
1593 * Compute "-v" option default value correctly.
1596 Packaging improvement:
1597 * Add `Testsuite: autopkgtest' to debian/control. (This will only have
1598 the right effect with recent enought dpkg; it will generate a harmless
1599 warning with earlier versions of dpkg.)

1620 Bump archive upload urgency to high.

1623 dgit (0.18.1) unstable; urgency=low
1626 * sshpsql archive query method passes LANG=C. Closes:#729788.
1627 * Subcommand program or argument options containing hyphens work.
1628 (Eg, --dpkg-buildpackage:blah was previously incorrectly rejected.)
1632 * Depend on curl | wget, as dget needs one of those. (The dput package,
1633 which contains dget, doesn't require them because dput itself works

1638 dgit (0.18) unstable; urgency=low
1641 * Remote push (dgit rpush), a la debsign -r. Closes:#721185.
1643 Improved behaviours:
1644 * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
1645 -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges. Closes:#727200.
1646 * Abolish the sshdakls method and replace it with sshpsql: that is, ssh
1647 (to coccia, by default) and run sql commands on the ftpmaster
1648 database. This is faster and has fewer bugs but is vulnerable to db
1649 schema changes. Closes:#726955. Closes:#720170. Closes:#720176.
1650 * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
1651 Distribution field as the suite.
1652 * Command execution reports from --dry-run go to stderr.
1655 * Support --gpg=... to provide a replacement command for gpg.
1656 * Support --ssh=... and --ssh:... to affect how we run ssh.
1659 * When using sbuild, pass the arguments to mergechanges in the right
1660 order so that we use the correct Description (the _source one,
1661 not the one from sbuild which didn't get e.g. -v<version>).
1662 * push actually takes an optional suite, like it says in the synopsis.
1664 * Fix dgit --damp-run sbuild to actually work.
1665 * Fix the "shellquote" internal subroutine. The bugs in it ought not to
1666 have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.
1668 Documentation and message fixes:
1669 * manpage: Clarify comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
1670 * manpage: Remove comment in BUGS about lack of policy docs
1671 for Dgit field, which is specified now. Closes:#720201.
1672 * manpage: Make discussion of --existing-package less scary. The
1673 default archive access method no longer needs it. Closes:#720171.
1674 * Mention "git merge", not "git-merge", in helpful message.
1677 Internal and debugging improvements:
1678 * Report chdir actions in debugging output.
1679 * Improvements to implementation of --dry-run and --damp-run.
1680 * Some code motion and cleanups.

1693 dgit (0.17) unstable; urgency=high
1695 * Do not grobble around in .git/refs/; instead, use git-show-ref.
1696 This avoids breaking when git makes packed refs. Closes:728893.
1697 * Clarify error message for missing refs/remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>.

1701 dgit (0.16) unstable; urgency=high
1703 * Format `(3.0) quilt' fixup does not mind extraneous other files
1704 in the build tree (e.g., build products and logs). Closes: #727053.
1705 * Set autoflush on stdout, to get better ordering of debugging
1706 etc. output when stdout is redirected.
1707 * New --damp-run mode, for more convenient and fuller testing etc.

1711 dgit (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
1713 * Better handling of packages pushed using dgit and stuck in NEW.
1714 (And, use of `--new' is not needed with fetch.) Closes: #722199.
1715 * More comprehensive warnings in many cases of archive skew.
1716 * Implement `dgit help' as well as `--help'. Closes: #721661.
1717 * Provide `dgit version' and `--version'. Closes: #721654.

1721 dgit (0.14) unstable; urgency=low
1723 * Include package name in tag message.
1724 * Create directory .git/dgit when needed during build. Closes: #721428.
1725 * Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser [Richard Hartmann]. Closes: #721404.
1726 These fields refer to the development branch, "master", on alioth,
1727 not to the dgit suite refs (which are not accessible to git clone).

1731 dgit (0.13) unstable; urgency=low
1733 * Reuse already-downloaded .orig files after checking their hashes.
1734 Closes: #720526. (This introduces a dependency on Digest::SHA.)
1735 * Do not always pointlessly fetch the .dsc twice. (That code was
1736 erroneously duplicated during editing, apparently.)
1737 * Remove DGET_UNPACK from the environment in case the user has set it.
1738 * Remove scary warning from Description.
1739 * When uploading to Debian, tell dput to upload to "ftp-master". This
1740 avoids problems with derivatives whose dput has a different default.
1742 * Fix some bugs in dgit fetch --dry-run which made dgit push
1743 --dry-run often not work at all.
1744 * Update the local tracking branch for the dgit remote, when pushing.
1746 * Fix references in manpage to old Vcs-Dgit-Master field name.
1747 * Reorganise manpage sections to be in a more conventional order.
1748 * New manpage section on FILES IN THE SOURCE PACKAGE BUT NOT IN GIT.

1753 dgit (0.12) unstable; urgency=low
1755 * Cope with packages with epoch. Closes: #720897.
1756 * Improve error message for non-fast-forward push. Closes: #720896.
1757 * New --ignore-dirty option to skip noncritical check. Closes: #720895.
1758 * New --no-quilt-fixup option to suppress quilt fixup. RTFM.
1759 * Add Closes line for #720595 to changelog entry for 0.11.

1763 dgit (0.11) unstable; urgency=low
1765 * Location of dgit-repos is now git.debian.org:/git/dgit-repos/repos.
1766 Closes: #720525. The rename on the server side will break older
1768 * Fix bug which would make quilt patch fixup fail if git status
1770 * Autogenerated quilt patch fixup patch Description contains several
1771 recent git commits, rather than implying that the patch corresponds
1772 exactly to the top git commit.
1773 * Use "ftp.debian.org" not "http.debian.net" as the default Debian
1774 archive. (http.debian.net tends to defeat certain kinds of cacheing,
1775 and can also have more skew.)
1776 * dgit build uses dpkg-buildpackage; there is a dgit git-build
1777 for using git-buildpackage. Closes: #720595.
1778 * Better error message for use of UNRELEASED suite. Closes: #720523.
1779 * Do not canonicalise suite more than once. Related to: #720526.
1780 * Fix a badly open-coded copy of check_not_dirty. Closes: #720524.
1781 * Fix some bugs in building (eg build-source would fail to do the quilt
1782 fixup; the --clean check in build was wrong).
1783 * Add missing dependency on realpath.
1784 * git-build (git-buildpackage wrapper) does not bother canonicalising
1785 the suite if --git-ignore-branch is used.

1795 dgit (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
1797 * New cleaning arrangements.
1798 * More comprehensive workaround for `3.0 (quilt)'.
1799 * In push, double-check the .changes against the changelog.
1800 * Better error when source package contains .git. Closes: #720555.
1801 * Change our .dsc field name to `Dgit'. Relevant to #720201.
1802 * Fix bug handling our synthetic merges when we see them in
1803 the remote suite branch.
1804 * `3.0 (quilt)' fixup creates .pc/applied-patches since modern
1805 dpkg-source creates it even though old ones didn't always.

1809 dgit (0.8) unstable; urgency=low
1811 * Fix comparison of archive's .dsc's hash and git branch head
1813 * When creating repos in dgit-repos (using the ssh-cmd method),
1814 copy _template rather than using mkdir and git init.
1816 * In push, do git fetch as well as archive fetch, or archive

1821 dgit (0.7) unstable; urgency=low
1823 * If dak ls, or rmadison, reports multiple versions, look for them
1824 all, and pick the newest .dsc that doesn't give 404.
1825 * Manpage formatting fix.
1826 * Name the local remote tracking branch remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>
1827 so that we avoid a warning from git about ambiguous branch names.

1845 dgit (0.4~pre2) experimental; urgency=low
1847 * Mangle debian/<version> tags the way git-buildpackage does
1848 (as of git-buildpackage 0.5.5, 3c6bbd0f4992f8da).
1849 * Support dgit-distro.<distro>.keyid config option.
1850 * Revert change to ssh to alioth CNAME, as the recommended CNAME
1851 is to something with no write access to the fs and the new CNAME
1852 has not yet been set up. This reintroduces #720172 :-/.

1858 * Use dgit.debian.net vhost on alioth. Closes:#720172.
1859 * Usage message. Closes:#720085.
1860 * Provide "dgit sbuild".
1861 * Assorted manpage fixes and improvements.
1862 * Fail if a required config item is missing.
1863 * Much better error messages.
1864 * Better error checking when parsing RFC822-style control data.
1865 * Better checking that the supplied .dsc and debian/changes correspond.
1866 * Ordering improvement in push: don't add dsc field until git push done.
1867 * New --distro option (helps with unknown suites).
