1 dgit (0.23~) unstable; urgency=low
3 * Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
4 gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
7 * New handling for .pc directory: dgit history now no longer contains
8 .pc at all. It is deleted whenever we find it. (When doing quilt
9 fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary directory so that we
10 can do dpkg-source --comit.) Closes:#764606. INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE -
11 older versions of dgit will have trouble with these git histories.
13 * Replace many calls to stat with new wrapper stat_exists; improves
14 error handling and simplifies the code.
16 * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
18 * Distro access configuration handling changes (should not be noticeable
21 * Add :..; prefix to ssh remote commands, for the benefit of future
22 forced command wrappers. Implicitly, this defines a new ssh-based
23 command protocol. Closes:#720174, #720175.
25 * dgit-repos-server: Handle ' ' in SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND (which some
26 git versions send, sigh).
28 * New dgit-ssh-dispatch infrastructure script for use on dgit repos
29 server as part of ssh forced command.
31 * Test suite restructuring to support new tests.
33 * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
35 * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et
36 al. Client users probably don't want this stuff. Also, it provides a
37 convenient way to publish the dependencies.
39 * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
40 series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#720177.
42 * Better documentation for quilt series handling.
44 * Strip `-b <branch>' from contents of Vcs-Git header, when setting up
45 the vcs-git remote. Closes:#759374.
47 * Do not offer wget as an alternative dependency to curl. We always
48 unconditionally invoke curl and have no code to use wget.
51 * Complain about lack of cuddled values for value-taking single-letter
52 options, rather than thinking the user meat an empty value.
55 * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witht -wn, -wg,
58 * Document in manpage under `dgit push' that it is best to build with
59 dgit too. Closes:#763333.
63 dgit (0.22.1) unstable; urgency=high
65 * Use Dpkg::Version::version_compare everywhere, not
66 Dpkg::Version::version_compare_string. The latter is entirely wrong,
67 meaning that dgit would get many version comparisons wrong.

75 * Clone removes destination directory on error. Closes:#736153.
76 * Work with wheezy-backports (and keep squeeze-backports working too).
78 * Work in read-only no-git-history mode with Ubuntu. You still have
79 to pass -dubuntu. Closes:#751781.
80 * Use mirror.ftp-master.debian.org DNS alias rather than coccia.
82 * Check hashes of files ourselves rather than running dget to
84 * Check SHA-256 of .dsc against hash from archive_query (ie projectb)
85 rather than letting dpkg-source do a signature verification.
86 Closes:#737619. Closes:#737625.
87 * Treat .dsc as bytes, just like everything else, rather than letting
88 HTTP::Message convert it to a Perl unicode string which the rest of
89 the program mishandles. Closes:#738536.
92 * Include canonicalised suite name in signed tag message.
93 * Mention cross-version dgit rpush incompatibility in manpage.
94 * Check for rpush protocol version incompatibility and crash early
96 * New script tests/using-intree for running tests on the source tree.
97 * Do not spew diff output to terminal (by default). Print sensible
98 message instead. Closes:#736526.
99 * Print better message for lack of configuration settings.
100 * Document that dgit rpush needs gnupg and your public key on the build
101 host. Closes:#736529.
102 * Fix a manpage reference to `--dget=' where `--dgit=' was intended.
103 * Provide t-archive-process-incoming and t-archive-query subroutines for
104 regression test scripts to use.
105 * Print better message for unknown operations.
106 * Provide `dgit clean'. Closes:#736527.
107 * When cloning, set up a remote `vcs-git' from the package's Vcs-Git
108 (and put an appropriate caveat in the manpage). Closes:#740687.
110 * Improve error message for .dsc having already been signed (iff
111 using libdpkg-perl 1.17.x). Closes:#731635.
112 * Improve error message for .dsc parsing failures more generally.
113 * Better reporting of child exit statuses (esp. deaths due to signals).
114 * In rpush, on protocol error talking to build host, check if the
115 subprocess died and report differently if so. Closes:#736528.
116 * Fixed a manpage typo.
117 * When tests invoke dgit, use --dgit= so that subprocesses use our
118 dgit rather than system one.
119 * Add a test for dgit rpush.
121 Major new feature, currently stalled awaiting server infrastructure:
122 * dgit-repos-server: New program for receiving signed-tag-based
123 pushes. Corresponding support in dgit itself, but not currently
124 used by default for any distro.
125 * Bring forward push of the version tag ref so it happens alongside
126 the push of the suite branch ref.
127 * New git-check and git-create methods "true" which are no-ops.
128 * test-dummy-drs `distro': for testing dgit and dgit-repos-server.

134 Bugfixes relating to unclean trees:
135 * Run a clean (of the specified type) before any build operation; do
136 this with `dpkg-buildpackage -T' clean if necessary, so -wd now works
137 with all the building methods.
138 * Refuse to do quilt fixup (explicitly requested, or as a result of
139 build) if the tree contains ignored files. Closes:#731632.
141 Error message improvements:
142 * Use failedcmd to report errors when ssh psql fails. Closes:#734281.
143 * failedcmd prints $us, not $_[0] - ie, dgit doesn't pretend,
144 in the error message, to be its child.
145 * Do not report the (irrelevant) $? when madison parsing fails.
147 Better workflow flexibility:
148 * Provide --build-products-dir option (and corresponding semantics
149 for -C) to specify where to find the files to upload. Closes:#731633.
151 Support for Debian backports suites:
152 * New quirks infrastructure in configuration and internals,
153 for suites (or perhaps distros) which are a bit like others.
154 * Use correct default archive location.
155 * Compute "-v" option default value correctly.
158 Packaging improvement:
159 * Add `Testsuite: autopkgtest' to debian/control. (This will only have
160 the right effect with recent enought dpkg; it will generate a harmless
161 warning with earlier versions of dpkg.)

203 * Remote push (dgit rpush), a la debsign -r. Closes:#721185.
206 * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
207 -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges. Closes:#727200.
208 * Abolish the sshdakls method and replace it with sshpsql: that is, ssh
209 (to coccia, by default) and run sql commands on the ftpmaster
210 database. This is faster and has fewer bugs but is vulnerable to db
211 schema changes. Closes:#726955. Closes:#720170. Closes:#720176.
212 * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
213 Distribution field as the suite.
214 * Command execution reports from --dry-run go to stderr.
217 * Support --gpg=... to provide a replacement command for gpg.
218 * Support --ssh=... and --ssh:... to affect how we run ssh.
221 * When using sbuild, pass the arguments to mergechanges in the right
222 order so that we use the correct Description (the _source one,
223 not the one from sbuild which didn't get e.g. -v<version>).
224 * push actually takes an optional suite, like it says in the synopsis.
226 * Fix dgit --damp-run sbuild to actually work.
227 * Fix the "shellquote" internal subroutine. The bugs in it ought not to
228 have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.
230 Documentation and message fixes:
231 * manpage: Clarify comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
232 * manpage: Remove comment in BUGS about lack of policy docs
233 for Dgit field, which is specified now. Closes:#720201.
234 * manpage: Make discussion of --existing-package less scary. The
235 default archive access method no longer needs it. Closes:#720171.
236 * Mention "git merge", not "git-merge", in helpful message.
239 Internal and debugging improvements:
240 * Report chdir actions in debugging output.
241 * Improvements to implementation of --dry-run and --damp-run.

295 * Reuse already-downloaded .orig files after checking their hashes.

297 * Do not always pointlessly fetch the .dsc twice. (That code was
298 erroneously duplicated during editing, apparently.)
299 * Remove DGET_UNPACK from the environment in case the user has set it.
300 * Remove scary warning from Description.
301 * When uploading to Debian, tell dput to upload to "ftp-master". This
302 avoids problems with derivatives whose dput has a different default.
304 * Fix some bugs in dgit fetch --dry-run which made dgit push
305 --dry-run often not work at all.
306 * Update the local tracking branch for the dgit remote, when pushing.
308 * Fix references in manpage to old Vcs-Dgit-Master field name.
309 * Reorganise manpage sections to be in a more conventional order.
310 * New manpage section on FILES IN THE SOURCE PACKAGE BUT NOT IN GIT.

330 * Fix bug which would make quilt patch fixup fail if git status
332 * Autogenerated quilt patch fixup patch Description contains several
333 recent git commits, rather than implying that the patch corresponds
334 exactly to the top git commit.
335 * Use "ftp.debian.org" not "http.debian.net" as the default Debian
336 archive. (http.debian.net tends to defeat certain kinds of cacheing,
337 and can also have more skew.)
338 * dgit build uses dpkg-buildpackage; there is a dgit git-build
339 for using git-buildpackage. Closes: #720595.
340 * Better error message for use of UNRELEASED suite. Closes: #720523.
341 * Do not canonicalise suite more than once. Related to: #720526.
342 * Fix a badly open-coded copy of check_not_dirty. Closes: #720524.
343 * Fix some bugs in building (eg build-source would fail to do the quilt
344 fixup; the --clean check in build was wrong).
345 * Add missing dependency on realpath.
346 * git-build (git-buildpackage wrapper) does not bother canonicalising
347 the suite if --git-ignore-branch is used.

364 * Fix bug handling our synthetic merges when we see them in
365 the remote suite branch.
