 dgit (4.2~) experimental; urgency=medium
 
+  New features [Sean Whitton]:
+  * New 'push-source' subcommand for source-only uploads.  Closes:#848931
+  * When dgit builds a source package, such as in the 'build-source'
+    subcommand, it now bypasses dpkg-buildpackage and invokes dpkg-source
+    directly.  This avoids a _source.buildinfo file in the .changes, which
+    doesn't make sense when using dgit.  See
+    <https://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2017/06/msg00005.html>.
+
   Documentation improvements:
   * dgit(1): Add a bit more rationale (polemic, even).  Closes:#874221.
   * Recommend mk-build-deps rather than apt-get build-dep.
