- --
+ * Client uses new infrastructure:
+ - Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
+ gideon.debian.org), with transition plan based on diversion feature.
+ Closes:#720172.
+ - Old versions of dgit will stop working when the server-side handle is
+ pulled.
-dgit (0.17~experimental3) experimental; urgency=low
+ * dgit git trees no longer contain .pc for format `3.0 (quilt)' source
+ packages. Closes:#764606.
+ - It is deleted whenever we find it.
+ - Older versions of dgit will choke on trees without .pc.
+ - (When doing quilt fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary
+ directory so that we can do dpkg-source --comit.)
- Minor fix to remote functionality:
- * Improve debug output at completion.
+ * All users are urged to upgrade ASAP.

+ Other significant improvements:
-dgit (0.17~experimental2) experimental; urgency=low
+ * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
+ series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
- * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
- Distribution field as the suite.
+ * When receiving a push with dgit-repos-server, update the server's
+ refs/heads/master if we are pushing to what the distro regards as a
+ relevant branch, and the push would ff master. Closes:#728209.
+
+ * For non-Debian distros, distro version release tags contain distro
+ name a la DEP-14 (rather than hardcoding `debian/').
+
+ * Set up a merge driver for debian/changelog. Closes:#769291.
+
+ * --clean=git and --clean=none cause dgit to pass -nc to
+ dpkg-buildpackage, suppressing calls to the package's clean target.
+ Also, expand the documentation in this area slightly. Closes:#768590.
+
+ * Provide --clean=git-ff (aka -wgf), which is useful for dgit itself (!)
+
+ Minor improvements:
+
+ * Reduce some noise output and improve the clarity of some messages.
+ * Be more careful about tag updates during fetch: only update tags
+ referring to uploads to distro we are trying to fetch from.
+ * Change realpath dependency to `coreutils (>= 8.23-1~) | realpath'
+ (Closes:#786955.)
- Changes to remote functionality:
- * More bugfixes.
+ Bugfixes:
- -- Ian Jackson <ijackson@chiark.greenend.org.uk> Wed, 23 Oct 2013 12:56:34 +0100
+ * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
+ * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
+ * Strip `-b <branch>' from contents of Vcs-Git header, when setting up
+ the vcs-git remote. Closes:#759374.
+ * Do not offer wget as an alternative dependency to curl. We always
+ unconditionally invoke curl and have no code to use wget.
+ Closes:#760805.
+ * Complain about lack of cuddled values for value-taking single-letter
+ options, rather than thinking the user meat an empty value.
+ Closes:#763332.
+ * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witth -wn, -wg,
+ -wd.
+ * Fix inaccurate error message when archive's git hash is not an
+ ancestor of git repo's git hash.
+ * Detect and bomb out on vendor-specific `3.0 (quilt)' patch series.
+ * Fix the rules clean target to remove test results and output.
+
+ Documentation improvements:
+
+ * Break out dgit(7) from dgit(1).
+ * Provide example workflow for dgit rpush. Closes:#763334.
+ (Also part of the fix for #768470.)
+ * Document that dgit repos are cloneable with git, in dgit(1)
+ section MODEL. [Andreas Barth.] Closes:#768470.
+ * Better documentation for quilt series handling.
+ * Document under `dgit push' that it is best to build with dgit too.
+ Closes:#763333.
+ * Other minor clarifications and improvements.
+
+ Behind-the-scenes work:
+
+ * Use ftpmasterapi archive query method.
+ (Closes:#727702. Also partly obsoletes #768470.)
+ * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et
+ al. Client users probably don't want this stuff. Also, it provides a
+ convenient way to publish the dependencies.
+ * Many many bugfixes to the server side (dpkg-repos-server et al.).
+ * Add :..; prefix to ssh remote commands, for the benefit of future
+ forced command wrappers. Implicitly, this defines a new ssh-based
+ command protocol. Closes:#720174, #720175.
+ * Distro access configuration handling changes (should not be noticeable
+ to most users).
+ * In places, significant restructuring or tidying up.
+ * Turn all perl warnings into errors using $SIG{__WARN__}.

+ * Work with wheezy-backports (and keep squeeze-backports working too).
+ Closes:#736524.
+ * 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.

+dgit (0.21) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ 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.)

+
+ Major new feature:

+
+ Improved behaviours:
+ * dgit build, by default, uses the archive to find out what the correct
+ -v<version> option is to pass to dpkg-genchanges. Closes:#727200.
+ * 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.
+ * When generating git tags, quote the (uncanonicalised) changelog's
+ Distribution field as the suite.
+ * Command execution reports from --dry-run go to stderr.
+
+ Other new features:
+ * Support --gpg=... to provide a replacement command for gpg.
+ * Support --ssh=... and --ssh:... to affect how we run ssh.

- * Improvements to implementation of --dry-run and --damp-run.
+ * Fix the "shellquote" internal subroutine. The bugs in it ought not to
+ have caused any real trouble in previous versions of dgit.
+
+ Documentation and message fixes:
+ * manpage: Clarify comments about orig tarballs. Closes: #723605.
+ * manpage: Remove comment in BUGS about lack of policy docs
+ for Dgit field, which is specified now. Closes:#720201.
+ * manpage: Make discussion of --existing-package less scary. The
+ default archive access method no longer needs it. Closes:#720171.
+ * Mention "git merge", not "git-merge", in helpful message.
+ Closes:#725632.
