Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.10 Severity: wishlist I'd like a way to use debcommit to commit, but only use the changelog text as a template for my final commit message (which I might want to tweak a bit so it's a better formed git commit message, for example).
Of course, this will mean putting it in a temp file, running the editor on the temp file, and then reading it back in and passing it to the rcs in the -m flag. debcommit -C doesn't quite do what I want, but is close. If -i is implmented, I don't know that -C will add a lot of value over it, and perhaps -C should just become an alias for -i? -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii debianutils 2.27 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii dpkg-dev 1.14.7 package building tools for Debian ii libc6 2.6.1-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii perl 5.8.8-11.1 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii sed 4.1.5-4 The GNU sed stream editor Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii fakeroot 1.8.2 Gives a fake root environment -- no debconf information -- see shy jo
