reassign 740566 devscripts
affects 740566 git-buildpackage
thanks
Dear dch maintainers,
"gbp dch" invokes dch and allows to set the
author to the git author relying on expansion of DEBFULLNAME but it
seems DEBFULLNAME is not honored anymore when adding new entries but
not a new section:
$ DEBFULLNAME='just me' dch -i 'a message'
works nicely:
@@ -1,3 +1,10 @@
+git-buildpackage (0.6.15+nmu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
+
+ * Non-maintainer upload.
+ * a message
+
+ -- just me <a...@sigxcpu.org> Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:47:14 +0200
+
but changing it afterwards (without -i) doesn't adjust the bottom line:
$ DEBFULLNAME='Not me' dch 'another message'
+git-buildpackage (0.6.15+nmu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
+
+ [ just me ]
+ * Non-maintainer upload.
+ * a message
+
+ [ Not me ]
+ * a message
+
+ -- just me <a...@sigxcpu.org> Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:48:29 +0200
^^^^^^^
I'd expect "Not me" as name here. This is a behaviour changed
introduced earlier this year. Was there a reason for this change?
If you think gbp dch is using the interface incorrectly please
reassign to git-buildpackage.
Cheers,
-- Guido
