- * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
- -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges.
- * When using sbuild, pass the arguments to mergechanges in the right
- order so that we use the correct Description (the _source one,
- not the one from sbuild which didn't get e.g. -v<version>).
- * Clarify the manpage's comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
- * Abolish the sshdakls method and replace it with sshpsql: that is, ssh
- (to coccia, by default) and run sql commands on the ftpmaster
- database. This is faster and has fewer bugs but is vulnerable to db
- schema changes. Closes:#726955. Closes:#720170. Closes:#720176.
- * Fix the "shellquote" command to work properly. The bugs in it ought
- not to have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.

- that it Closes:#727125.

+ gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
+ Closes:#720172.

+ * New handling for .pc directory: dgit history now no longer contains
+ .pc at all. It is deleted whenever we find it. (When doing quilt

+ * Work in read-only no-git-history mode with Ubuntu. You still have
+ to pass -dubuntu. Closes:#751781.
+ * Use mirror.ftp-master.debian.org DNS alias rather than coccia.
+ Closes:#752602.
+ * Check hashes of files ourselves rather than running dget to
+ re-retreive the .dsc.
+ * Check SHA-256 of .dsc against hash from archive_query (ie projectb)
+ rather than letting dpkg-source do a signature verification.
+ Closes:#737619. Closes:#737625.
+ * Treat .dsc as bytes, just like everything else, rather than letting
+ HTTP::Message convert it to a Perl unicode string which the rest of
+ the program mishandles. Closes:#738536.
+
+ Minor improvements:
+ * Include canonicalised suite name in signed tag message.
+ * Mention cross-version dgit rpush incompatibility in manpage.
+ * Check for rpush protocol version incompatibility and crash early
+ if incompatible.
+ * New script tests/using-intree for running tests on the source tree.
+ * Do not spew diff output to terminal (by default). Print sensible
+ message instead. Closes:#736526.
+ * Print better message for lack of configuration settings.
+ * Document that dgit rpush needs gnupg and your public key on the build
+ host. Closes:#736529.
+ * Fix a manpage reference to `--dget=' where `--dgit=' was intended.
+ * Provide t-archive-process-incoming and t-archive-query subroutines for
+ regression test scripts to use.
+ * Print better message for unknown operations.
+ * Provide `dgit clean'. Closes:#736527.
+ * When cloning, set up a remote `vcs-git' from the package's Vcs-Git
+ (and put an appropriate caveat in the manpage). Closes:#740687.
+ Closes:#740721.
+ * Improve error message for .dsc having already been signed (iff
+ using libdpkg-perl 1.17.x). Closes:#731635.
+ * Improve error message for .dsc parsing failures more generally.
+ * Better reporting of child exit statuses (esp. deaths due to signals).
+ * In rpush, on protocol error talking to build host, check if the
+ subprocess died and report differently if so. Closes:#736528.
+ * Fixed a manpage typo.
+ * When tests invoke dgit, use --dgit= so that subprocesses use our
+ dgit rather than system one.
+ * Add a test for dgit rpush.
+
+ Major new feature, currently stalled awaiting server infrastructure:
+ * dgit-repos-server: New program for receiving signed-tag-based
+ pushes. Corresponding support in dgit itself, but not currently
+ used by default for any distro.
+ * Bring forward push of the version tag ref so it happens alongside
+ the push of the suite branch ref.
+ * New git-check and git-create methods "true" which are no-ops.
+ * test-dummy-drs `distro': for testing dgit and dgit-repos-server.

+
+ Bugfixes relating to unclean trees:
+ * Run a clean (of the specified type) before any build operation; do
+ this with `dpkg-buildpackage -T' clean if necessary, so -wd now works
+ with all the building methods.
+ * Refuse to do quilt fixup (explicitly requested, or as a result of
+ build) if the tree contains ignored files. Closes:#731632.
+
+ Error message improvements:
+ * Use failedcmd to report errors when ssh psql fails. Closes:#734281.
+ * failedcmd prints $us, not $_[0] - ie, dgit doesn't pretend,
+ in the error message, to be its child.
+ * Do not report the (irrelevant) $? when madison parsing fails.
+
+ Better workflow flexibility:
+ * Provide --build-products-dir option (and corresponding semantics
+ for -C) to specify where to find the files to upload. Closes:#731633.
+
+ Support for Debian backports suites:
+ * New quirks infrastructure in configuration and internals,
+ for suites (or perhaps distros) which are a bit like others.
+ * Use correct default archive location.
+ * Compute "-v" option default value correctly.
+ * Closes:#733954.
+
+ Packaging improvement:
+ * Add `Testsuite: autopkgtest' to debian/control. (This will only have
+ the right effect with recent enought dpkg; it will generate a harmless
+ warning with earlier versions of dpkg.)
