Closes: 316662 322208 364510 420472 435980 436095 437387 439054 439060 439163 439854 439992 440013 440018 441073 441105 442267 442630 442930 443081
Changes: 
 devscripts (2.10.9ubuntu1) hardy; urgency=low
 .
   * Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
     - debian/control:
       + DebianMaintainerField foo.
       + Build-depend on lsb-release.
     - debian/rules:
       + Actually run tests in test-stamp target.
     - scripts/debchange.1:
       + Add info about --security option.
     - scripts/debchange.pl:
       + Add --security option, which acts like --nmu, but adds security update
         template instead of NMU template to changelog.
       + Add -U/--upstream flag that forces original "just increment
         the end" behaviour; Ubuntu is upstream for some pieces of software.
       + Add --distributor= to override lsb_release output.
       + Default to "hardy" as distribution.
       + Add "ubuntu1" to version string for new versions.
     - scripts/debuild.pl:
       + Preserve DEBEMAIL environment variable inside debuild.
       + Enforce Ubuntu merge policy.
     - test/debchange.pl:
       + Test for debchange.pl

   [ Mohammed Adnene Trojette ]
   * uscan: allow the path for downloaded files to be specified. Thanks Steffen
            Moeller for the patch. (Closes: #439060)
   * debsign: work in $TMPDIR (if set) or /tmp. (Closes: #420472)
 .
   [ Adam D. Barratt ]
   * debchange:
     + Add an option to not modify the trailer line when editing or
       appending changelog entries (Closes: #435980)
     + Make -r use the distribution specified in the previous changelog entry by
       default (Closes: #364510)
     + Use the package changelog to determine version information for the NEWS
       file by default (Closes: #316662)
     + Allow an explicit empty changelog entry to be passed on the command line
       to allow non-interactive changes to the distribution and urgency without
       adding a changelog entry (Closes: #442267)
     + Make -r only change the distribution if it was previously UNRELEASED.
       Combining -r and -D on a changelog that's not UNRELEASED now
       causes a warning and does not change the distribution (Closes: #443081)
   * licensecheck: Attempt to distinguish between versions of the BSD license
     (Closes: #442630)
   * bts: Improve the documentation of forcemerge. Thanks to dann frazier.
     (Closes: #442930)

   [ Stefano Zacchiroli ]
   * uscan: add a --repack option to repack .tar.bz2 archives to .tar.gz
     archives upon request
 .
 devscripts (2.10.8) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Mohammed Adnene Trojette ]
   * debcommit:
      + allow an alternate location for the changelog. By default
        debian/changelog is used. Thanks Sjoerd Simons and Laurent Bigonville
        for the patches. (Closes: #437387)
      + add a -C/--confirm option to confirm the commit message. Thanks Laurent
        Bigonville for forwardporting the patch from Ubuntu. (Closes: #439054)
      + allow tagging with bazaar. (Closes: #441105)
   * debuild:
      + keep DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY and GNOME_KEYRING_SOCKET environment
        variables around for safe keeping before we destroy the
        environment, and re-set them before running debsign; thanks Steve
        Kovalik for the patch. (Closes: #322208)
      + also keep GPG_AGENT_INFO and SSH_AUTH_SOCK.
   * licensecheck: decruft // comments. (Closes: #441073)
   * debchange: update according to new Backports.org policy. (Closes: #439854)
 .
   [ Stefano Zacchiroli ]
   * debcheckout: new script to checkout the version control system repository
     of a package
 .
   [ Joey Hess ]
   * debcheckout: when checking out svn repos, check them out into a directory
     named for the package, to avoid checking out into ie, a trunk directory.
 .
   [ Adam D. Barratt ]
   * licensecheck
     + tidy up the pre-check regexes
     + unescape "\@"s in copyright statements
     + decruft  as well as (C)
     + make the copyright regex more flexible
     + correctly handle metacharacters found in potential copyright statements
   * debdiff: allow whitespace to be ignored in diffs (Closes: #439163)
   * debcommit
     + Allow changes to only debian/changelog to be committed.
       Thanks to martin f krafft for the patch. (Closes: #439992)
     + Allow the leading "* " to be stripped from commit messages
       (Closes: #440013)
   * bts: Change working directory back to its original location before
     running the browser (Closes: #436095)
   * checkbashisms: Catch the use of test/[ with a unary -a operator. Thanks to
     Matthew Wilcox for the suggestion.
 .
   [ Julian Gilbey ]
   * The package should suggest git-core, not git (Closes: #440018)
   * debchange: update for new BTS layout (pkgreport.cgi syntax changed)
 .
   [ Joey Hess ]
