Changelog
devscripts (2.10.62) unstable; urgency=low
[ James Vega ]
* debcommit:
+ Fix a regression where only debian/ changes were being committed in CVS
repos. Thanks to Thomas Parmelan for the patch. (Closes: #563918)
+ Change '~' in version numbers to '.' when tagging in git. Thanks to
Damyan Ivanov. (Closes: #564075)
+ Treat darcs similar to hg with respect to determining the commit
message. Fold a single change into one line and spawn an editor if
multiple changes are detected. (Closes: #563901)
+ Ensure the commit message presented to the user for editing always has
an EOL on the last line.
* rmadison:
+ Add http://qa.debian.org/cgi-madison/madison.cgi, shorthand "udd", as a
known madison URL.
+ Detect an existing '?' in a URL and use '&' to append more cgi
parameters. Thanks to Raphael Geissert.
* chdist:
+ Add "use strict" and update for compliance.
+ Use Dpkg::Version to perform version comparisons.
* Devscripts::Versort: Use Dpkg::Version::version_compare instead of
invoking “dpkg --compare-versions”.
* debian/control:
+ Update Vcs-* to point to the new Git repository.
+ Remove Conflicts on kdesdk-scripts from Etch.
+ Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4 -- no changes necessary.
* dcmd: Allow capital letters for the section and priority fields. (Closes:
#565159)
* debcheckout: Ensure "/git/" is at the start of the URL's path when
performing an authenticated clone of an Alioth git repo.
* uupdate:
+ Fix a typo which caused redirection of stdout to a file name "@".
(Closes: #569062)
+ Add support for xz compressed archives/patches and 7z archives. Thanks
to Hideki Yamane for the patch. (Closes: #568615)
+ Clarify wording when neither a diff nor a debian.tar is found. (Closes:
#575820)
* Update descriptions of debcommit to include darcs as a supported VCS.
(Closes: #570138)
* debchange:
+ Add maverick as a valid distribution. Thanks to Benjamin Drung for the
patch. (Closes: #576287)
+ Treat a trailing '+' like a trailing '~' when incrementing the version
number. (Closes: #521642)
* debuild: Expose two new variables (epoch-less source version, and upstream
version) to hooks. Thanks to gregor herrmann for the patch. (Closes:
573092)
* checkbashisms: Detect more Bash builtins -- readarray, mapfile, enable.
(Closes: #568473)
* dd-list: Clarify that --dctrl simply changes the expected format of the
list of packages. Thanks to Adeodato Simó for the suggestion. (Partially
addresses #509983)
* Add bash completion of package names for various Devscripts commands.
Thanks to Simon Paillard for the patch. (Closes: #507776)
* Document in dscverify(1) that /usr/share/keyrings/debian-maintainers.gpg
is one of the default keyrings.
* dget: Add description of the use of dscverify to the description in the
man page. (Closes: #537367)
* Add support for working with/recognizing xz archives to debchange,
debdiff, debuild, uscan.

* Add debian/source/format with "3.0 (native)".
[ Patrick Schoenfeld ]
* nmudiff: Fix "[nmudiff] please include --tagpending option" by applying the
patch from Gregor Herrmann. Thanks. (Closes: #559549)
* build-rdeps:
+ Add some documentation to the manpage, which emphasizes on the fact that
the tool has some external dependencies (namely apt Sources files)
+ Add a proper argument passing to test_for_valid_component() so that
it really gets the filename and not the Release file entry.
+ Add a check to test_for_valid_component() to test if a given Sources
file actually exists and otherwise print a more meaningful warning.
(Closes: #564443)
[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* debchange: Sanitise list of distributions. Remove {sarge,etch}-backports
and sarge-volatile, none of which accept uploads any more.
