Package: elpa-magit Version: 2.90.1-2 Severity: wishlist Tags: upstream magit is at version 2.90 in Debian, which is over a year old. upstream has worked a lot on refactoring a lot of things upstream, and a bunch of third-party libraries have adapted to follow that.
for example, magit-todos doesn't work with the latest magit version in Debian... could we maybe package a snapshot version in experimental, so that people could start to sync up? i'm afraid of a "one big release" approach that we seem to be heading towards, and which might break a bunch of stuff... it feels like everyone is using magit from MELPA right now, which seems far from ideal, especially when packages like magit-todos are entering debian, *relying* on versions from MELPA instead of Debian! thanks! PS: upstream seems to have stopped making releases as well, which is why i'm asking for a snapshot, see: https://github.com/magit/magit/issues/3965 -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.3 APT prefers stable-debug APT policy: (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages elpa-magit depends on: ii elpa-dash 2.14.1+dfsg-1 ii elpa-ghub 3.2.0-1 ii elpa-git-commit 2.90.1-2 ii elpa-magit-popup 2.12.5-1 ii elpa-with-editor 2.8.1-1 ii emacsen-common 3.0.4 ii git 1:2.20.1-2+deb10u1 elpa-magit recommends no packages. elpa-magit suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed
