+
+ * Fix Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browse to refer to chiark. (The dgit-repos on
+ alioth aren't suitable right now because the master there can
+ currently only be updated with an actual upload, ie dgit push.)
+ * Fix some manpage typos. [ Richard Hartmann ]
+ * Manpage said that --clean=check was -wn but that is --clean=none;
+ correctly document that --clean=check is actually -wc.
+ * Document that up to -DDD (not just -DD) is meaningfully different.
+ * Document that -cname=value applies only for this run.
+ * Improve manpage comment about defining a new distro.
+ * Document that --quilt=linear is the default for Debian.
+ * Fix a formatting problem in --build-products-dir= doc.
+ * In manpage, do not seem to imply that NMU should be of only one
+ new commit.
+ * Qualify to Debian the manpage comment about how to do NMU.
+ * In discussion on how to start using dgit when already using git, do
+ not imply/assume that existing git history will have identical trees
+ to dgit history.
+ * Remove stray sentence in config section of manpage.
+ * Manpage: Clarify wording of readonly config.
+ * Manpage: Better cross-references for -k and keyid.
+ * dgit(7): No longer say that dgit-repos lives on Alioth.
+ * Infrastructure: Get mirroring right for fresh repos of existing
+ packages (!)
+ * --new is needed for read access to packages in NEW, too. Document
+ this, and make it work properly.
+ * Work around #793471 (madness with $SIG{__WARN__} and Perl's system
+ builtin): move $SIG{} setting into setup_sigwarn in Dgit.pm, and
+ check getppid.
+ * Make warnings fatal in dpkg-repos-admin-debian, dgit-ssh-dispatch
+ (using setup_sigwarn).
- * Check for new dgit git service on dgit-git.debian.net (ie
- 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
- fixup, we recreate a suitable .pc in a temporary directory so that we
- can do dpkg-source --comit.) Closes:#764606. INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE -
- older versions of dgit will have trouble with these git histories.
-
- * Replace many calls to stat with new wrapper stat_exists; improves
- error handling and simplifies the code.
+ --
- * Fix handling of rmadison-based and gitless distros (e.g., Ubuntu).
+dgit (1.0) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ Improvements:
+ * Switch to new production git repositories for reading.
+ (this can no longer divert to alioth). Public readonly access
+ now works. Closes:#791447.
+ * Memoise git config lookups (big speedup!)
+ * Provide -wdd aka --clean=dpkg-source-d. Closes:#792433.
+ * Provide -wc aka --clean=check.
+
+ Manpage updates:
+ * Remove some obsolete caveats from BUGS.
+ * Reorganise and complete the configuration section.
+ * Remove obselete comment about DMs not being able to push.
+ We have, for now, a way to add keys manually. Closes:#720173.
+
+ Access machinery:
+ * Remove configuration relating to alioth.
+ * Provide for different access mechanisms when pushing.
+ * Provide for configurable git url suffix.
+ * Allow git-url to be '' to force fallback to git-proto etc.
+ * Provide for checking git presence via http[s].
+ * Do some quoting on debug output (needed if the server might not
+ be trustworthy and might send us bad stuff).
+ * Talk to push.dgit.debian.org, rather than the .debian.net alias.
+
+ Infrastructure:
+ * Provide for mirroring git updates to a different server.
+ * Provide cgit-regen-config command for cgi-grnet-01.
+ * Make dgit-ssh-dispatch not spew (harmless) warnings if caller
+ tries for a shell session (ie SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND not set).
+
+ Cleanups:
+ * Remove an obsolete comment from the code.
+ * Improve an error message from dgit-repos-policy-debian.
+ * Test suite: Break out t-make-hook-link.
+ * Fix a manpage typo.

+dgit (0.30) unstable; urgency=high
+
+ INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
+
+ * 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 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.)
+
+ * All users are urged to upgrade ASAP.
+
+ Other significant improvements:
- * Distro access configuration handling changes (should not be noticeable
- to most users).
+ * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
+ series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
- * 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.
+ * 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.
- * dgit-repos-server: Handle ' ' in SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND (which some
- git versions send, sigh).
+ * For non-Debian distros, distro version release tags contain distro
+ name a la DEP-14 (rather than hardcoding `debian/').
- * New dgit-ssh-dispatch infrastructure script for use on dgit repos
- server as part of ssh forced command.
+ * Set up a merge driver for debian/changelog. Closes:#769291.
- * Test suite restructuring to support new tests.
+ * --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.
- * Add missing `gpgv' to test dependencies in debian/tests/control.
+ * Provide --clean=git-ff (aka -wgf), which is useful for dgit itself (!)
- * 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.
+ Minor improvements:
- * When generating quilt patches, try to linearise the git history into a
- series of individual new patches for debian/patches. Closes:#770710.
+ * 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.)
- * Better documentation for quilt series handling.
+ Bugfixes:
+ * 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 witht -wn, -wg,
+ * Reject (rather than ignoring) further options merged witth -wn, -wg,
-wd.
-
- * Document in manpage under `dgit push' that it is best to build with
- dgit too. Closes:#763333.
-
* Fix inaccurate error message when archive's git hash is not an
ancestor of git repo's git hash.
-
- * Use ftpmasterapi archive query method.
- (Closes:#727702. Also partly obsoletes #768470.)
-
- * Turn all perl warnings into errors using $SIG{__WARN__}.
-
- * Show git config queries only with debuglevel 3 (-DDD) and higher.
-
- * Fix an undef reference in error message processing when quilt
- fixup linearisation fails.
-
- * Quilt linearisation with .pc removal passes -f to git-rm. (Otherwise
- we may find that .pc/applied_patches prevents the commit.)
-
* 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.

- * --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.
+ Behind-the-scenes work:
- * Manpages: Break out dgit(7) from dgit(1).
- * Manpages: Other clarifications and improvements.
- * Change realpath dependency to `coreutils (>= 8.23-1~) | realpath'
- (Closes:#786955.)
- * For non-Debian distros, debiantag() uses distro name a la DEP-14.
- * dgit: Be more careful about tag updates during fetch: only update
- tags referring to uploads to distro we are trying to fetch from.
+ * Use ftpmasterapi archive query method.

+ * New dgit-infrastructure binary package containing dgit-repos-server et

+ 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

+ * In places, significant restructuring or tidying up.
+ * Turn all perl warnings into errors using $SIG{__WARN__}.
