Description:
dgit - git interoperability with the Debian archive
dgit-infrastructure - dgit server backend infrastructure
Changes:
dgit (2.0) unstable; urgency=low
.
Incompatible change:
* dgit sbuild: does not pass -A to sbuild. Consequently the default
build is now simply sbuild's default. With older sbuilds it was
possible to override dgit's -A by passing another option. But this
has been changed recently and now this default setting is very awkward
to change for the dgit user.
* dgit gbp-build: Make --quilt=gbp the default. (See below.)
* New tag format (for dgit view) archive/debian/VERSION.
.
Major new feature:
* --quilt=gbp, --quilt=dpm, --quilt=unpacked: Introduce facility for
split view (dgit/mainiainer view), to improve compatibility with some
workflow tools.
.
New checks and improved behaviours in dgit:
* When running dpkg-buildpackage, cope if user specified -g or -G.
* dgit sbuild: check that the set of .changes files found is as we
expect, before calling mergechanges. Re:#800060.
* dgit sbuild: Rename the used-up .changes files to `.inmulti' to
avoid accidental use of the wrong one (by software, or by users).
* dgit sbuild: Check that the binary .changes file doesn't contain a
.dsc.
* Introduce --rm-old-changes to delete previous builds' changes files.
* Remove any pre-existing _source.changes file before building source,
as a safety check.
* No longer tolerate a multitude of .changes files when doing push.
Instead, insist on a single one. Closes:#800110.
* dgit sbuild no longer deletes extranious .changes files; instead
we rely on --rm-old-changes, or failing that, fail early.
* When doing quilt linearisation, treat upstream .gitignores not
in the toplevel the same way we treat ones in the toplevel.
* When automatically generating quilt patch, honour GIT_COMMITTER_DATE
for filename creation (makes filename deterministic in test suite).
* New --overwrite option, replaces need to for user to use
git merge -s ours. Closes:#838718.
* When generating quilt patches from git commits, make patches that
look quite like git-format-patch output (rather than strange things
based on an obselete interpretation of DEP-3).
* When generating quilt patches from git commits, honour (and strip)
any Gbp-Pq headers (that we understand).
* Several dgit-generated commits now have slightly better annotations
from dgit about what it was doing.
* Before committing to push, check that .dsc and .changes correspond.
Closes:#800060.
* Better error message if non-split-brain patch stack no longer
applies (due to new upstream version, or user messing with it).
Closes:#833025.
* Better error message if HEAD contains changes unrepresentable
by `3.0 (quilt)'. Closes:#834618.
* Much better error message when HEAD and .dsc do not match.
Closes:#809516.
.
Infrastructure:
* dgit-repos-policy-debian: Better error handling.
* dgit-repos-policy-debian.: fix git-cat-file-handling with multiple
taints in db (!).
* dgit-infrastructure has, and uses, its own copies of the perl modules.
This avoids introducing a versioned dependency between dgit and
dgit-infrastructure (and also makes it easier to test cross-version
compatibility).
.
Documentation:
* Document the dgit-distro.DISTRO.quilt-mode config setting.
* Clarify the --clean= options' documentation. Closes:#800054.
* Discourage use of the --PROGRAM:OPTION escape hatch. (Apropos
of various bug reports including #800060 and #833025.)
* Document the expected form of HEAD for each --quilt= mode.
.
Bugfixes:
* When cleaning up after failed clone, stat the to-be-cleaned-up
directory before running rmtree on it. Closes:#796773.
* Do not call "warn" on failure of cleanup handler in END block
(since warn has been made fatal and aborts the cleanup chain).
* Print better error message (with `fail' rather than `die') if
`dgit clone' cannot create the destination directory.
* Properly substitute $changesfile in one of the `You can retry'
messages. Closes:#800078.
* Pass --ch:* and -v options to dpkg-buildpackage when building
source. Fixes bad Perl poetry syntax. Closes:#829121.
* When synthesing a commit from a .dsc from the archive, stop
internal git reset from printing a confusing message about HEAD.
* Turn off git gc in the private working areas.
* Do not fail to do some important quilt processing in some
--quilt modes.
* Fix two calls to chdir without proper error checking.
* Fix a couple of bugs in error reporting.
* Fix several bugs in .orig detection/recognition.
* Tidy up refs/dgit-fetch/ after dgit fetch (if successful).
* Fix handling of in-archive copies.
* Don't break if user has push.followTags=true. Closes:#827878.
* Arrange for the special dgit remote to be skipped by git fetch --all
etc. And no longer configure a fetch spec, since it won't work
anyway. Closes:#827892.
* Allow local git config options to override user-global ones,
as is proper. Closes:#835858.
* When generating patch filenames from titles, first transliterate
them (lossily) to ascii. Closes:#834807.
.
Test suite:
* When sbuild fails, do not crash due to sed not finding the log
file. Instead, simply tolerate the absence of the log file.
* Put --no-arch-all in build-modes-sbuild act, not only its real_act.
Cosmetic change only.
* Set GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE and increment them
explicitly in drs-push-rejects test. This avoids date dependencies
which can cause that test to fail on fast computers.
* Remove some spurios .debs from the example_1.0.tar.
* Increase sqlite_busy_timeout in debpolicy-dbretry, because old
zealot is very slow and we need to give the other processes time
to rollback and release the lock.
* Test quilt single-debian-patch.
* Provide `tartree-edit gitfetchinfo' etc. to help with comparing
different test case git working tree tarballs.
* Test dgit-repos-policy-debian with multiple (identical, as it happens)
existing taints.
* Provide better log output for certain failures.
* Many new tests (especially for new functionality).
* Add missing debhelper (>=8) to test suite's global Depends.
* tstunt arrangements: Fix mishandling of PERLLIB, etc.
* tstunt-parsechangelog: Produce Timestamp field (like official one
does, now).
* Do not fail when git requires --allow-unrelated-histories.
