Changelog
dgit (2.9) unstable; urgency=medium
New features:
* During push, automatically calculate which .origs are required,
so user never needs [--ch:]-sa or [--ch:]-sd. Closes:#829116.
* New import-dsc feature.
* New option --dgit-view-save= for split view quilt modes.
In particular, means that the output of a split view quilt-fixup
is left somewhere useful.
* dgit clone: Set timestamps in cloned tree to a single unified time.
This makes it less likely that the user will trip over any
timestamp-dependent FTBFS bugs (eg #842452).
* Support dgit --delayed= push (with a warning in the manpage
about possible skew).
* dgit gbp-build will arrange to let gbp buildpackage generate
.orig tarballs if it seems applicable. Closes:#841094.
Documentation improvements:
* dgit-*(7). Many new tutorial manpages, several written and many
improved by Sean Whitton.
* dgit(7): Substantial updates, including documenting split view.
* dgit(1): Better cross-references.
* dgit(1): Remove obsolete workflow information.
* dgit(1): Improved BUGS section.
* Fix changelog entry for SIGPIPE to correctly mention
Closes:#841090.
Bugfixes:
* Split brain mode: Fix --new. Closes:#842577.
* Properly look for .origs etc. in .., fetching them less often.
Closes:#842386.
* Reject `dgit pull' in split view quilt modes, to avoid
creating unfortunate wreckage on non-dgit-view branches.
Closes:#842608.
* Cope when cloning suite which doesn't receive uploads,
like testing. Closes:#842621.
* Properly fetch all archive dgit view tags, as we intended.
* Actually provide a -p (--package=) option (!)
Test suite fixes:
* Test suite: Explicitly configure user.name and user.email, so
that tests work when environment doesn't have defaults.
Closes:#842279 (I hope).
