Package: bugs.debian.org
Severity: wishlist
I think these error messages can be improved:
| Processing commands for cont...@bugs.debian.org:

| Bug#577650: libcupt-perl: Does not handle automatic upgrade of git packages
| Bug is marked as being merged with others. Use an existing clone.
Huh? Does that mean I have to unmerge before cloning? Once I understand
this, I’ll be happy to file a separate bug for it.
| > retitle -1 conflict on git-completion should be versioned to avoid dpkg bug
| Failed to set the title of -1: The 'bug' parameter ("-1") to

I would prefer something to the effect of
Failed to set the title of -1: undefined psuedo-bug-number -1
or
Failed to set the title of -1: no such bug, since corresponding clone failed

Probably the debugging output should be suppressed, too.

Thoughts?
