git-ubuntu 1.0-rc1 released

Written for git-ubuntu by Robie Basak on 2020-05-29

The git-ubuntu snap has been updated to 1.0-rc1 in the edge channel. Once all reimports are complete, this is a candidate to be released as 1.0 and published to the beta and stable channels at that point.

I will send a separate announcement about the upcoming reimports necessary to bring all existing imported repositories to the 1.0 standard.

Changes from 0.10.1 to 1.0-rc1
------------------------------

Significant changes in this release are the removal of the experimental build, lint, review, import-local and import-ppa subcommands. We expect to reintroduce stable versions of these subcommands post-1.0, subject to demand and priority.

Other changes include fixes for various importer edge cases, and the facility to manage reimport requests in production for the upcoming reimports.
