Changelog
bzr-builddeb (2.0) experimental; urgency=low
[ Jelmer Vernooij ]
* Support +bzr for snapshots as well as ~bzr.
* Lock the tree before starting as remote trees are more strict about this,
meaning there were problems with remote branches.
* Import apt_pkg only when used, as it is used rarely and importing it
has an overhead, and also leads to increased memory usage.
[ James Westby ]
* Lots of compatibilty breaking changes. Please see NEWS.Debian for advice.
* Use the last entry from debian/changelog as the commit message
when importing a .diff.gz or native package with import-dsc.
* Use dpkg-source to extract source pacakges, which is much more robust.
* Don't use strict changelog parsing from python-debian, as we don't
need faithful reproduction.
* Follow dpkg-buildpackage etc. more closely by looking for .orig.tar.gz
in the parent directory, and placing the result of the build there.
- ../tarballs is still used a fallback for compatibility.
- moving the result doesn't fail the build if the .changes can't be
found when the default is used, to support builders that move
the package elsewhere.
- The .changes file can be missed if the arch is not what is expected,
for instance if "debuild -S" was set as the builder.
* builddeb --result now works for packages with an epoch.
* Added mark-uploaded command that sets the appropriate tag based
on the version, for use after upload.
* merge-upstream and import-dsc have had their command line options
changed to be more sensible, and to be future-proof. Details in
the online help or the documetation.
* --snapshot has been dropped from import-dsc. snapshot.debian.net
is virtually useless currently. Something similar can be brought
back when we have such a service again.
