dgit (9.6) unstable; urgency=medium
* git-playtree-setup had a spurious set -x so many programs spewed
debugging output. This is now fixed. Closes:#932959.
dgit:
* Drop support for configuring old, not currently enabled, methods
of TLS key/cert pinning. We are going to revisit this soon.

dgit (9.1) unstable; urgency=medium
New tools for a "git-push-to-upload" workflow [Ian Jackson & Sean Whitton]:
* New script in a new binary package: git-debpush.
The new binary package is small, but
+ git-debpush needs to be in src:dgit, because its test suite is the
dgit test suite; however,
+ git-debpush is functionally and conceptually independent of dgit,
so should not go into bin:dgit; in particular
+ git-debpush's dependencies are quite different to the other
binary packages.
* New dgit-infrastructure subcommand, tag2upload, to process tags made
by git-debpush.
Please see git-debpush(1) for a sketch of the workflow.
dgit:
* Allow the -p option to be used with various push modes.
* Include dgit tag metadata in maintainer view tags.
For consistency with, and use by, git-debpush.
* Include quilt metadata in the archive/ (dgit view) tag.
* rpush protocol: Version 6, which includes split brain information
for maintainer view tags. And, actually use newer version
(was broken in 9.0, which would prefer to select 4 not 5).
* Add some missing blank lines to tag messages.
* Some other refactoring.
Other documentation:
* dgit(1): fix a reference in the description of --quilt=auto [Sean
Whitton].
Translations:
* Do not translate tag subject lines, because these are parsed by
dgit-repos-server.
Test suite:
* Test cases for new tools for "git-push-to-upload" workflow.
* drs-git-ext: honour DGIT_DRS_MODE.
* Provide a stunt sendmail and a stunt dgit.
* Unset CDPATH in case caller has it set.
* Some other refactoring.
Administrivia:
* Update d/copyright years to include 2019 [Sean Whitton].

dgit (9.0) unstable; urgency=medium
dgit - low-impact incompatible change:
* Drop support for, and testing of, dgit versions which use old tag name
(debian/V; now that is maintainer view and dgit is archive/debian/V).
The new tags came in in dgit 2.0 in October 2016. No version of dgit
without them was in any Debian release. We don't expect there are any
sites using old servers which do not support the new format, or anyone
using a dgit client older than 2.x who cannot upgrade.
git-debrebase fixes [Niko Tyni]:
* Fix `git-debrebase convert-from-dgit-view <upstream>', which
would crash due to an argument parser bug. Closes:#930214.
* git-debrebase(1): typo fix. Closes:#930215.
dgit - new capabilities:
* Support split view with native packages, and with all quilt modes.
Now we distinguish "split view" (meaning separate dgit branch) from
"splitting quilt modes" (eg --quilt-unapplied).
[Prompted in part by enquiries from Sam Hartman] Closes:#926640.
* Support for bare debian/ directory (aka packaging-only) git branches
Ie, --quilt=baredebian[+tarball]. [Thanks for info from Shengjing
Zhu, and docs and UI contributions/review from Sean Whitton.]
Closes:#903392. Closes:#931253.
dgit - bugfixes:
* Fix --dgit-view-save option alias, which never worked.
(--save-dgit-view worked, and still does, though.)
* i18n: Do not translate import commit messages.
dgit - other documentation improvements [Sean Whitton]:
* Expand on description of --include-dirty. New text may help
user avoid unexpected file deletion. Closes:#930922.
* dgit-maint-*(7): Suggest --name-status --diff-filter. Closes:#930956.
* dgit-maint-*(7): Using untagged upstream commits. Closes:#930964.
dgit - minor consequences of these other changes:
* Actually properly reject invalid quilt modes found in git config.
(Previously they might be accepted and then cause malfunctions.)
* Reject split brain quilt modes with single-debian-patch.
(Previously this would malfunction; now we reject it.)
* i18n: Add translator notes about ASCII art changes display.
* Drop "dgit view: changes are required..." message.
* Some other minor changes to quilt fixup error handling.
* Changes to debugging output related to quilt modes and split view.
* Introduce rpush protocol version 5. Minimum version is now 4.
* Considerable internal rearrangement of quilt fixup code.
* Considerable test suite work including new tests.
dgit test suite:
* dgit-repos-policy-debian: Test taint removal. Closes:#929249.

Bugfixes:

gdr-compatible. Closes:#922446. [Report from Sean Whitton]
* git-debrebase: convert-*: Fix two broken error messages.
Closes:#922462. [Report from Didier 'OdyX' Raboud]
Documentation:
* [nl] translations updated. Closes:#921088. [Frans Spiesschaert]
* Many manpage typo fixes. Closes:#918384. [Paul Hardy]

Closes:#921965. [Bjarni Ingi Gislason]
Test suite:
* dgit: import-dsc: New test for abs/rel dsc component links
Internal changes:
* dgit: cmd_import_dsc: comment on lack of is_orig_file check
* git-debrebase: resolve_upstream_version: Return $used too
