18 * No longer crash if .git/logs does not exist when we need it.
19 * Report the upstream tag, rather than commit id, in tags/commits,
20 if the user explicitly specifies refs/tags/...
22 tag-to-upload, git-debpush [Sean Whitton]:
23 * Several new checks designed to prevent broken uploads.
24 - Including: Check that upstream tag is ancestor of branch to be tagged.
26 * Cope with spaces in user-supplied upstream tag.
28 tag-to-upload, server side:
29 * Fix non-default quilt modes. These were all previously broken.

50 New tools for a "git-push-to-upload" workflow [Ian Jackson & Sean Whitton]:
51 * New script in a new binary package: git-debpush.
52 The new binary package is small, but
53 + git-debpush needs to be in src:dgit, because its test suite is the
54 dgit test suite; however,
55 + git-debpush is functionally and conceptually independent of dgit,
56 so should not go into bin:dgit; in particular
57 + git-debpush's dependencies are quite different to the other
59 * New dgit-infrastructure subcommand, tag2upload, to process tags made
61 Please see git-debpush(1) for a sketch of the workflow.
64 * Allow the -p option to be used with various push modes.
65 * Include dgit tag metadata in maintainer view tags.
66 For consistency with, and use by, git-debpush.
67 * Include quilt metadata in the archive/ (dgit view) tag.
68 * rpush protocol: Version 6, which includes split brain information
69 for maintainer view tags. And, actually use newer version
70 (was broken in 9.0, which would prefer to select 4 not 5).
71 * Add some missing blank lines to tag messages.
72 * Some other refactoring.
75 * dgit(1): fix a reference in the description of --quilt=auto [Sean
79 * Do not translate tag subject lines, because these are parsed by
83 * Test cases for new tools for "git-push-to-upload" workflow.
84 * drs-git-ext: honour DGIT_DRS_MODE.
85 * Provide a stunt sendmail and a stunt dgit.
86 * Unset CDPATH in case caller has it set.
87 * Some other refactoring.

94 dgit (9.0) unstable; urgency=medium
96 dgit - low-impact incompatible change:
97 * Drop support for, and testing of, dgit versions which use old tag name
98 (debian/V; now that is maintainer view and dgit is archive/debian/V).
99 The new tags came in in dgit 2.0 in October 2016. No version of dgit
100 without them was in any Debian release. We don't expect there are any
101 sites using old servers which do not support the new format, or anyone
102 using a dgit client older than 2.x who cannot upgrade.
104 git-debrebase fixes [Niko Tyni]:
105 * Fix `git-debrebase convert-from-dgit-view <upstream>', which
106 would crash due to an argument parser bug. Closes:#930214.
107 * git-debrebase(1): typo fix. Closes:#930215.
109 dgit - new capabilities:
110 * Support split view with native packages, and with all quilt modes.
111 Now we distinguish "split view" (meaning separate dgit branch) from
112 "splitting quilt modes" (eg --quilt-unapplied).
113 [Prompted in part by enquiries from Sam Hartman] Closes:#926640.
114 * Support for bare debian/ directory (aka packaging-only) git branches
115 Ie, --quilt=baredebian[+tarball]. [Thanks for info from Shengjing
116 Zhu, and docs and UI contributions/review from Sean Whitton.]
117 Closes:#903392. Closes:#931253.
120 * Fix --dgit-view-save option alias, which never worked.
121 (--save-dgit-view worked, and still does, though.)
122 * i18n: Do not translate import commit messages.
124 dgit - other documentation improvements [Sean Whitton]:
125 * Expand on description of --include-dirty. New text may help
126 user avoid unexpected file deletion. Closes:#930922.
127 * dgit-maint-*(7): Suggest --name-status --diff-filter. Closes:#930956.
128 * dgit-maint-*(7): Using untagged upstream commits. Closes:#930964.
130 dgit - minor consequences of these other changes:
131 * Actually properly reject invalid quilt modes found in git config.
132 (Previously they might be accepted and then cause malfunctions.)
133 * Reject split brain quilt modes with single-debian-patch.
134 (Previously this would malfunction; now we reject it.)
135 * i18n: Add translator notes about ASCII art changes display.
136 * Drop "dgit view: changes are required..." message.
137 * Some other minor changes to quilt fixup error handling.
138 * Changes to debugging output related to quilt modes and split view.
139 * Introduce rpush protocol version 5. Minimum version is now 4.
140 * Considerable internal rearrangement of quilt fixup code.
141 * Considerable test suite work including new tests.
144 * dgit-repos-policy-debian: Test taint removal. Closes:#929249.

188 dgit - Behavioural changes with compatibility implications:
189 * Pass --no-source-only-changes to pbuilder and cowbuilder
190 Closes:#904862. This option was only recently added to
191 pbuilder. For compatibility with old pbuilder, say, eg
192 `dgit --pbuilder!:--no-source-only-changes'.
193 * With --clean=git etc, check the tree is clean even before building
194 source in dgit's private directory. Specifically, with eg dgit sbuild
195 or dgit build-source. dgit prior to 6.0 would always clean the tree.
196 dgit 6.0 to 8.1 would ignore untracked files completely, leading to
197 occasional lossage. The pre-6.0 behaviour can be requested with
198 --clean=git,always etc. (aka -wga, -wgfa). Closes:#914317.
200 dgit - New features, bugfixes and improved behaviours:
201 * Allow uppercase (ascii) letters in multi-orig components,
202 as is allowed by the spec in dpkg-source(1). Closes:#916926.
203 * Honour --program!:option to suppress options passed by default.
204 * clone: Create destination directory before using network.
205 * Check early that build-products-dir is accessible. Closes:#913648.
206 * Look for origs in `..' as well as build-products-dir, and
207 there are any, link them into the bpd. Closes:#904878.
208 * Provide new --git[-ff],always clean mode (as discussed above).
210 i18n - new translations [Frans Spiesschaert]:
211 * nl, dgit-user(7). Closes:#918253.
212 * nl, messages. Closes:#917148.
215 * dgit(1): Fix documentation of .quilt-mode config.
216 * dgit(1): Fix a formatting typo (spurious .TP). Closes:#917194.
217 * dgit-user(7): Fix formatting error in comment about multi-arch.
218 * dgit-maint-debrebase(7): handle DFSG-filtering for a new package.
219 [Sean Whitton] Closes:#915973.
221 Error message improvements:
222 * dgit: When reporting no such package, say `source package'.
223 * dgit: Fix reference to -wdn/-wddn in a message.
224 * dgit: cleaning: Minorly improved handling of note about ignores.

264 dgit - Behavioural change with compatibility implications:
265 * Check (with --clean=dpkg-source[-d], ie, by default) that rules
266 clean does not leave untracked files (ie, trip if it looks like
267 a `git add' may have been forgotten). dgit will now fail in
268 some situations where previously it would have just carried on.
269 * Honour new clean modes --dpkg-source[-d],no-check aka -wdn / -wddn
270 which suppress this check. (Whether the untracked files are
271 used or disregarded depends on --include-dirty.)
272 * Honour new .clean-mode-newer access config option, to allow git
273 configs to be compatible with both new and old dgits.
274 See relevant parts of dgit(1) for more information.
276 dgit - Improved behaviours:
277 * Better handling of cross-filesystem operations, including
278 build-products-dir on a different fs. Closes:#910730.
279 * Change to git toplevel dir before starting. Closes:#910724.
280 * Provide --clean=check,ignores aka -wci.
281 * Provide --clean=dpkg-source[-d],all-check aka -wda / -wdda.
283 dgit - Important bugfixes:
284 * Check that tree does not contain untracked files (depending on clean
285 mode) when building source using git branch rather than using working
286 tree. In particular, honour --clean=check. Closes:#910705.
287 * Also apply that new cleanliness check during build-source or
288 push-source etc. with --clean=dpkg-source; even though rules
289 clean was not run. See above. Again, -wdn / -wddn may be needed.
290 * dgit: Forbid source building with --include-dirty and non-.. bpd,
291 which can seriously malfunction. Closes:#910725; see #910740.
293 dgit - Additional sanity checks:
294 * quilt linearisation: Stop at debian/source/format changes.
295 * quilt fixup: Cope if gdr analysis finds origin. Closes:#910687.
296 * Add missing error check in single-debian-patch handling.
297 * Refuse to work if critical files have uncommitted changes.
298 * Reject all git config options containing newlines.
299 * Better error message for not in git tree. (For git-debrebase too.)
301 dgit - Minor bugfixes:
302 * Fix spelling errors etc. in messages.
303 * Replace mention of alioth by salsa in a message.
304 * clean_tree: confess rather than die on unknown clean mode.
305 * Add missing \n to crash from git_cat_file. (git-debrebase too.)
308 * dgit(1): Document that cleaning is sometimes not needed and
309 is therefore not done.
310 * README.md: Add this document for the benefit of Salsa.
311 * po/README: Mention -k10 threshold.
312 * po/README: Give a pointer to salsa; remind the translator to commit.
313 * dgit(1): Fix spelling errors.
314 * dgit(7): Fix spelling errors.
315 * dgit-sponsorship(7): Fix spelling error.
317 Consequential changes:

319 * Tests adjusted to correspond to, and somewhat test, these changes.
320 * Slight reorganisation to documentation of --clean=dpkg-source etc.
323 * Makefile: Provide i18n-commit target.

600 dgit (6.0) unstable; urgency=medium
602 New features [Sean Whitton]:
603 * Introduce dgit.default.build-products-dir git configuration key.
605 * Die earlier, and with a more helpful message, if the user tries to
606 include dirty changes when building a source package in split brain
609 dgit behavioural changes:
610 * dgit: Always build the source package ourselves, rather than
611 sometimes leaving that to the builder command. dgit will now
612 usually generate *_multi.changes rather than *_$arch.changes.
613 * dgit: Build source packages in a private directory, except when
614 the user passes --include-dirty [Sean Whitton].
615 - dgit push-source no longer cleans the tree [Sean Whitton].
616 * dgit: Rename --ignore-dirty to --include-dirty (leaving the old
617 name supported as a deprecated alias).
619 Test suite improvements:
620 * test suite: unset VISUAL, which interferes. Closes:#904308.
621 * Honour DGIT_SCHROOT_CHROOT to set the schroot to use for the sbuild
623 * Support tests/run-all --progressive.
624 * Drop now-obsolete *-asplit tests.
627 * apt-get method: when apt does not update release files,
628 unconditionally print hint about noatime. Closes:#851873.
629 * messages: Be a lot more friendly about NEW in particular,
630 and also add a couple of `please's. Closes:#904448.
631 * Make --build-products-dir (and the new config key) actually work.
632 Closes:#863582. [ Ian and Sean. ]

703 dgit (5.6) unstable; urgency=medium
705 * Merge the experimental branch containing the fianl

707 - The tests now pass (most of the time, at least) in
708 current Debian unstable, whereas 5.5's fail utterly.
709 - There is still occasional lossage. So when running tests
710 in a loop (eg to test ever commit), it is still good to set
711 DGIT_TEST_RETRY_COUNT=3 (say).
713 * test suite: Test that manpages format with only expected warnings.

779 that this is because --since-version was not specified.
781 * When quilt fixup fails because of discrepancies, print a
782 git diff rune which will show them. Closes:#865446.
783 * When fetch or push wants git fetch (other than in a situation where it
784 happes to be a noop) but --dry-run was specified, fail with an
785 explanation, rather than looping with a false coplaint about git
786 fetch. Closes:#871317.

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

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

911 specially. Closes:#886442.
912 * In split brain mode, with unexpected diffs, print dgit view
913 commitid in suggested diff rune. (HEAD is wrong.) Closes:#886443.
914 * Fix message about missing quilt cache entry to refer to
915 HEAD rather than tree, since dgit needs a commit. Closes:#884646.
916 * Fix grammar error in 4.1 changelog entry. [Sean Whitton]
917 * Remove some whitespace "errors". [Sean Whitton]
920 * Remove dependency alternative on realpath (package last existed in
921 Debian wheezy). Closes:#877552.
924 * dpkgsourceignores-docs: Correct restriction (so autopkgtest
925 won't try to run it).
926 * Additional workarounds for gnupg races (#868550) including
927 retrying each individual test once, and more sophisticated
928 wrapper for gpg (with locking and, sometimes saves stdin).
929 * oldnewtagalt: Fix regression when running outside git tree,

950 worktrees on different filesystems may not work; that's a
951 matter for the future. Closes:#868515.
952 * Change the dpkg-source -i argument to exclude exactly the right
953 set of things. (Sadly this is not a simple rune.)
955 Other improvements to dgit:
956 * New print-dpkg-source-ignores option to print the big rune
957 you need to pass to dpkg-source to make it work exactly right.
958 * Properly shell-quote the --git-builder argument to gbp.
961 * dgit-user(7): Provide information about how to use sbuild.
962 Quite ugly due to #868527. Closes:#868526.
963 * dgit-user(7): Fixed example rune to use curl (which prints
964 to stdout, as the rune expects). [reported by Simon Tatham]
967 * Do not leave many clog-* files in .git/dgit.
970 * using-these: New script to help with ad-hoc-testing.
971 * Refactoring in preparation for push-source [Sean Whitton].
974 * sbuild-gitish: New test case to check running sbuild from git
975 * Work around gnupg agent connection races by having our stunt
976 gpg wrapper simply try running gpg again, once, if it exits 2.
977 This does not fully suppress the bug but it does significantly reduce

1606 dgit (2.0) unstable; urgency=low
1608 Incompatible change:
1609 * dgit sbuild: does not pass -A to sbuild. Consequently the default
1610 build is now simply sbuild's default. With older sbuilds it was
1611 possible to override dgit's -A by passing another option. But this
1612 has been changed recently and now this default setting is very awkward
1613 to change for the dgit user.
1614 * dgit gbp-build: Make --quilt=gbp the default. (See below.)
1615 * New tag format (for dgit view) archive/debian/VERSION.
1618 * --quilt=gbp, --quilt=dpm, --quilt=unpacked: Introduce facility for
1619 split view (dgit/mainiainer view), to improve compatibility with some
1622 New checks and improved behaviours in dgit:
1623 * When running dpkg-buildpackage, cope if user specified -g or -G.
1624 * dgit sbuild: check that the set of .changes files found is as we
1625 expect, before calling mergechanges. Re:#800060.
1626 * dgit sbuild: Rename the used-up .changes files to `.inmulti' to
1627 avoid accidental use of the wrong one (by software, or by users).
1628 * dgit sbuild: Check that the binary .changes file doesn't contain a
1630 * Introduce --rm-old-changes to delete previous builds' changes files.
1631 * Remove any pre-existing _source.changes file before building source,
1633 * No longer tolerate a multitude of .changes files when doing push.
1634 Instead, insist on a single one. Closes:#800110.
1635 * dgit sbuild no longer deletes extranious .changes files; instead
1636 we rely on --rm-old-changes, or failing that, fail early.
1637 * When doing quilt linearisation, treat upstream .gitignores not
1638 in the toplevel the same way we treat ones in the toplevel.
1639 * When automatically generating quilt patch, honour GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
1640 for filename creation (makes filename deterministic in test suite).
1641 * New --overwrite option, replaces need to for user to use
1642 git merge -s ours. Closes:#838718.
1643 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, make patches that
1644 look quite like git-format-patch output (rather than strange things
1645 based on an obselete interpretation of DEP-3).
1646 * When generating quilt patches from git commits, honour (and strip)
1647 any Gbp-Pq headers (that we understand).
1648 * Several dgit-generated commits now have slightly better annotations
1649 from dgit about what it was doing.
1650 * Before committing to push, check that .dsc and .changes correspond.
1652 * Better error message if non-split-brain patch stack no longer
1653 applies (due to new upstream version, or user messing with it).
1655 * Better error message if HEAD contains changes unrepresentable
1656 by `3.0 (quilt)'. Closes:#834618.
1657 * Much better error message when HEAD and .dsc do not match.
1661 * dgit-repos-policy-debian: Better error handling.
1662 * dgit-repos-policy-debian.: fix git-cat-file-handling with multiple
1664 * dgit-infrastructure has, and uses, its own copies of the perl modules.
1665 This avoids introducing a versioned dependency between dgit and
1666 dgit-infrastructure (and also makes it easier to test cross-version
1670 * Document the dgit-distro.DISTRO.quilt-mode config setting.
1671 * Clarify the --clean= options' documentation. Closes:#800054.
1672 * Discourage use of the --PROGRAM:OPTION escape hatch. (Apropos
1673 of various bug reports including #800060 and #833025.)
1674 * Document the expected form of HEAD for each --quilt= mode.
1677 * When cleaning up after failed clone, stat the to-be-cleaned-up
1678 directory before running rmtree on it. Closes:#796773.
1679 * Do not call "warn" on failure of cleanup handler in END block
1680 (since warn has been made fatal and aborts the cleanup chain).
1681 * Print better error message (with `fail' rather than `die') if
1682 `dgit clone' cannot create the destination directory.
1683 * Properly substitute $changesfile in one of the `You can retry'
1684 messages. Closes:#800078.
1685 * Pass --ch:* and -v options to dpkg-buildpackage when building
1686 source. Fixes bad Perl poetry syntax. Closes:#829121.
1687 * When synthesing a commit from a .dsc from the archive, stop
1688 internal git reset from printing a confusing message about HEAD.
1689 * Turn off git gc in the private working areas.
1690 * Do not fail to do some important quilt processing in some
1692 * Fix two calls to chdir without proper error checking.
1693 * Fix a couple of bugs in error reporting.
1694 * Fix several bugs in .orig detection/recognition.
1695 * Tidy up refs/dgit-fetch/ after dgit fetch (if successful).
1696 * Fix handling of in-archive copies.
1697 * Don't break if user has push.followTags=true. Closes:#827878.
1698 * Arrange for the special dgit remote to be skipped by git fetch --all
1699 etc. And no longer configure a fetch spec, since it won't work
1700 anyway. Closes:#827892.
1701 * Allow local git config options to override user-global ones,
1702 as is proper. Closes:#835858.
1703 * When generating patch filenames from titles, first transliterate
1704 them (lossily) to ascii. Closes:#834807.
1707 * When sbuild fails, do not crash due to sed not finding the log
1708 file. Instead, simply tolerate the absence of the log file.
1709 * Put --no-arch-all in build-modes-sbuild act, not only its real_act.
1710 Cosmetic change only.
1711 * Set GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE and increment them
1712 explicitly in drs-push-rejects test. This avoids date dependencies
1713 which can cause that test to fail on fast computers.
1714 * Remove some spurios .debs from the example_1.0.tar.
1715 * Increase sqlite_busy_timeout in debpolicy-dbretry, because old
1716 zealot is very slow and we need to give the other processes time
1717 to rollback and release the lock.
1718 * Test quilt single-debian-patch.
1719 * Provide `tartree-edit gitfetchinfo' etc. to help with comparing
1720 different test case git working tree tarballs.
1721 * Test dgit-repos-policy-debian with multiple (identical, as it happens)
1723 * Provide better log output for certain failures.
1724 * Many new tests (especially for new functionality).
1725 * Add missing debhelper (>=8) to test suite's global Depends.
1726 * tstunt arrangements: Fix mishandling of PERLLIB, etc.
1727 * tstunt-parsechangelog: Produce Timestamp field (like official one
1729 * Do not fail when git requires --allow-unrelated-histories.

1736 * Unbreak --dry-run (`exiting subroutine via next', broken in
1737 ac221d67, bug released in 0.22).
1738 * When running git-add in commit-quilty-patch, properly escape
1739 filenames (which git-add treats as glob patterns).
1740 * When running git-add in commit-quilty-patch, use -f and sometimes -A,
1741 so as to avoid being broken by any .gitignore, etc.
1742 * When quilt linearisation fails, print the right information in
1743 the error message. (This has been broken forever.)

1748 the user can override it. Closes:#796019.
1750 New checks and improved behaviours:
1751 * Detect and reject git trees containing debian/source/local-options
1752 or debian/source/local-patch-header.
1753 * In --dry-run mode, _do_ actually run dpkg-source --commit so that we
1754 actually do construct the quilt fixup commit; instead, honour
1755 --dry-run by avoiding pulling it back to your HEAD.
1756 * quilt-fixup checks that the git tree is clean, as for build-prep.
1759 * In dgit(7), discuss binaries and documentation present in upstream but
1760 removed by rules clean.
1763 * Run quilt-fixup with -wgf in distropatches-reject,
1764 so that we don't need build-depends.

1938 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
1940 * Client uses new infrastructure:
1941 - Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
1942 gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
1944 - Old versions of dgit will stop working when the server-side handle is
1947 * dgit git trees no longer contain .pc for format `3.0 (quilt)' source
1948 packages. Closes:#764606.
1949 - It is deleted whenever we find it.
1950 - Older versions of dgit will choke on trees without .pc.
1951 - (When doing quilt fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary
1952 directory so that we can do dpkg-source --comit.)
1954 * All users are urged to upgrade ASAP.
1956 Other significant improvements:
1958 * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
1959 series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
1961 * When receiving a push with dgit-repos-server, update the server's
1962 refs/heads/master if we are pushing to what the distro regards as a
1963 relevant branch, and the push would ff master. Closes:#728209.
1965 * For non-Debian distros, distro version release tags contain distro
1966 name a la DEP-14 (rather than hardcoding `debian/').
1968 * Set up a merge driver for debian/changelog. Closes:#769291.
1970 * --clean=git and --clean=none cause dgit to pass -nc to
1971 dpkg-buildpackage, suppressing calls to the package's clean target.
1972 Also, expand the documentation in this area slightly. Closes:#768590.
1974 * Provide --clean=git-ff (aka -wgf), which is useful for dgit itself (!)
1978 * Reduce some noise output and improve the clarity of some messages.
1979 * Be more careful about tag updates during fetch: only update tags
1980 referring to uploads to distro we are trying to fetch from.
1981 * Change realpath dependency to `coreutils (>= 8.23-1~) | realpath'
1986 * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
1987 * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
1988 * Strip `-b <branch>' from contents of Vcs-Git header, when setting up
1989 the vcs-git remote. Closes:#759374.
1990 * Do not offer wget as an alternative dependency to curl. We always
1991 unconditionally invoke curl and have no code to use wget.
1993 * Complain about lack of cuddled values for value-taking single-letter
1994 options, rather than thinking the user meat an empty value.
1996 * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witth -wn, -wg,
1998 * Fix inaccurate error message when archive's git hash is not an
1999 ancestor of git repo's git hash.
2000 * Detect and bomb out on vendor-specific `3.0 (quilt)' patch series.
2001 * Fix the rules clean target to remove test results and output.
2003 Documentation improvements:
2005 * Break out dgit(7) from dgit(1).

2015 Behind-the-scenes work:
2017 * Use ftpmasterapi archive query method.
2018 (Closes:#727702. Also partly obsoletes #768470.)
2019 * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et
2020 al. Client users probably don't want this stuff. Also, it provides a
2021 convenient way to publish the dependencies.
2022 * Many many bugfixes to the server side (dpkg-repos-server et al.).
2023 * Add :..; prefix to ssh remote commands, for the benefit of future
2024 forced command wrappers. Implicitly, this defines a new ssh-based

2081 using libdpkg-perl 1.17.x). Closes:#731635.
2082 * Improve error message for .dsc parsing failures more generally.
2083 * Better reporting of child exit statuses (esp. deaths due to signals).
2084 * In rpush, on protocol error talking to build host, check if the
2085 subprocess died and report differently if so. Closes:#736528.
2086 * Fixed a manpage typo.
2087 * When tests invoke dgit, use --dgit= so that subprocesses use our
2088 dgit rather than system one.
2089 * Add a test for dgit rpush.
2091 Major new feature, currently stalled awaiting server infrastructure:
2092 * dgit-repos-server: New program for receiving signed-tag-based
2093 pushes. Corresponding support in dgit itself, but not currently
2094 used by default for any distro.
2095 * Bring forward push of the version tag ref so it happens alongside
2096 the push of the suite branch ref.
2097 * New git-check and git-create methods "true" which are no-ops.
2098 * test-dummy-drs `distro': for testing dgit and dgit-repos-server.

2104 Bugfixes relating to unclean trees:
2105 * Run a clean (of the specified type) before any build operation; do
2106 this with `dpkg-buildpackage -T' clean if necessary, so -wd now works
2107 with all the building methods.
2108 * Refuse to do quilt fixup (explicitly requested, or as a result of
2109 build) if the tree contains ignored files. Closes:#731632.
2111 Error message improvements:
2112 * Use failedcmd to report errors when ssh psql fails. Closes:#734281.
2113 * failedcmd prints $us, not $_[0] - ie, dgit doesn't pretend,
2114 in the error message, to be its child.
2115 * Do not report the (irrelevant) $? when madison parsing fails.
2117 Better workflow flexibility:
2118 * Provide --build-products-dir option (and corresponding semantics
2119 for -C) to specify where to find the files to upload. Closes:#731633.
2121 Support for Debian backports suites:
2122 * New quirks infrastructure in configuration and internals,
2123 for suites (or perhaps distros) which are a bit like others.
2124 * Use correct default archive location.
2125 * Compute "-v" option default value correctly.
2128 Packaging improvement:
2129 * Add `Testsuite: autopkgtest' to debian/control. (This will only have
2130 the right effect with recent enought dpkg; it will generate a harmless
2131 warning with earlier versions of dpkg.)

2160 (Eg, --dpkg-buildpackage:blah was previously incorrectly rejected.)
2164 * Depend on curl | wget, as dget needs one of those. (The dput package,

2170 dgit (0.18) unstable; urgency=low
2173 * Remote push (dgit rpush), a la debsign -r. Closes:#721185.
2175 Improved behaviours:
2176 * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
2177 -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges. Closes:#727200.
2178 * Abolish the sshdakls method and replace it with sshpsql: that is, ssh
2179 (to coccia, by default) and run sql commands on the ftpmaster
2180 database. This is faster and has fewer bugs but is vulnerable to db
2181 schema changes. Closes:#726955. Closes:#720170. Closes:#720176.
2182 * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
2183 Distribution field as the suite.
2184 * Command execution reports from --dry-run go to stderr.
2187 * Support --gpg=... to provide a replacement command for gpg.
2188 * Support --ssh=... and --ssh:... to affect how we run ssh.
2191 * When using sbuild, pass the arguments to mergechanges in the right
2192 order so that we use the correct Description (the _source one,
2193 not the one from sbuild which didn't get e.g. -v<version>).
2194 * push actually takes an optional suite, like it says in the synopsis.
2196 * Fix dgit --damp-run sbuild to actually work.
2197 * Fix the "shellquote" internal subroutine. The bugs in it ought not to
2198 have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.
2200 Documentation and message fixes:
2201 * manpage: Clarify comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
2202 * manpage: Remove comment in BUGS about lack of policy docs
2203 for Dgit field, which is specified now. Closes:#720201.
2204 * manpage: Make discussion of --existing-package less scary. The
2205 default archive access method no longer needs it. Closes:#720171.
2206 * Mention "git merge", not "git-merge", in helpful message.
2209 Internal and debugging improvements:
2210 * Report chdir actions in debugging output.
2211 * Improvements to implementation of --dry-run and --damp-run.
2212 * Some code motion and cleanups.

2227 * Do not grobble around in .git/refs/; instead, use git-show-ref.
2228 This avoids breaking when git makes packed refs. Closes:728893.
2229 * Clarify error message for missing refs/remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>.

2235 * Format `(3.0) quilt' fixup does not mind extraneous other files
2236 in the build tree (e.g., build products and logs). Closes: #727053.
2237 * Set autoflush on stdout, to get better ordering of debugging
2238 etc. output when stdout is redirected.
2239 * New --damp-run mode, for more convenient and fuller testing etc.

2243 dgit (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
2245 * Better handling of packages pushed using dgit and stuck in NEW.
2246 (And, use of `--new' is not needed with fetch.) Closes: #722199.
2247 * More comprehensive warnings in many cases of archive skew.
2248 * Implement `dgit help' as well as `--help'. Closes: #721661.
2249 * Provide `dgit version' and `--version'. Closes: #721654.

2255 * Include package name in tag message.
2256 * Create directory .git/dgit when needed during build. Closes: #721428.
2257 * Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser [Richard Hartmann]. Closes: #721404.
2258 These fields refer to the development branch, "master", on alioth,
2259 not to the dgit suite refs (which are not accessible to git clone).

2263 dgit (0.13) unstable; urgency=low
2265 * Reuse already-downloaded .orig files after checking their hashes.
2266 Closes: #720526. (This introduces a dependency on Digest::SHA.)
2267 * Do not always pointlessly fetch the .dsc twice. (That code was
2268 erroneously duplicated during editing, apparently.)
2269 * Remove DGET_UNPACK from the environment in case the user has set it.
2270 * Remove scary warning from Description.
2271 * When uploading to Debian, tell dput to upload to "ftp-master". This
2272 avoids problems with derivatives whose dput has a different default.
2274 * Fix some bugs in dgit fetch --dry-run which made dgit push
2275 --dry-run often not work at all.
2276 * Update the local tracking branch for the dgit remote, when pushing.
2278 * Fix references in manpage to old Vcs-Dgit-Master field name.
2279 * Reorganise manpage sections to be in a more conventional order.
2280 * New manpage section on FILES IN THE SOURCE PACKAGE BUT NOT IN GIT.

2288 * Improve error message for non-fast-forward push. Closes: #720896.
2289 * New --ignore-dirty option to skip noncritical check. Closes: #720895.
2290 * New --no-quilt-fixup option to suppress quilt fixup. RTFM.
2291 * Add Closes line for #720595 to changelog entry for 0.11.

2295 dgit (0.11) unstable; urgency=low
2297 * Location of dgit-repos is now git.debian.org:/git/dgit-repos/repos.
2298 Closes: #720525. The rename on the server side will break older
2300 * Fix bug which would make quilt patch fixup fail if git status
2302 * Autogenerated quilt patch fixup patch Description contains several
2303 recent git commits, rather than implying that the patch corresponds
2304 exactly to the top git commit.
2305 * Use "ftp.debian.org" not "http.debian.net" as the default Debian
2306 archive. (http.debian.net tends to defeat certain kinds of cacheing,
2307 and can also have more skew.)
2308 * dgit build uses dpkg-buildpackage; there is a dgit git-build
2309 for using git-buildpackage. Closes: #720595.
2310 * Better error message for use of UNRELEASED suite. Closes: #720523.
2311 * Do not canonicalise suite more than once. Related to: #720526.
2312 * Fix a badly open-coded copy of check_not_dirty. Closes: #720524.
2313 * Fix some bugs in building (eg build-source would fail to do the quilt
2314 fixup; the --clean check in build was wrong).
2315 * Add missing dependency on realpath.
2316 * git-build (git-buildpackage wrapper) does not bother canonicalising
2317 the suite if --git-ignore-branch is used.

2330 * More comprehensive workaround for `3.0 (quilt)'.
2331 * In push, double-check the .changes against the changelog.
2332 * Better error when source package contains .git. Closes: #720555.
2333 * Change our .dsc field name to `Dgit'. Relevant to #720201.
2334 * Fix bug handling our synthetic merges when we see them in
2335 the remote suite branch.
2336 * `3.0 (quilt)' fixup creates .pc/applied-patches since modern
2337 dpkg-source creates it even though old ones didn't always.

2346 copy _template rather than using mkdir and git init.
2348 * In push, do git fetch as well as archive fetch, or archive

2356 all, and pick the newest .dsc that doesn't give 404.
2357 * Manpage formatting fix.
2358 * Name the local remote tracking branch remotes/dgit/dgit/<suite>
2359 so that we avoid a warning from git about ambiguous branch names.

2381 * Support dgit-distro.<distro>.keyid config option.
2382 * Revert change to ssh to alioth CNAME, as the recommended CNAME
2383 is to something with no write access to the fs and the new CNAME
2384 has not yet been set up. This reintroduces #720172 :-/.

2395 * Much better error messages.
2396 * Better error checking when parsing RFC822-style control data.
