Hello Folks,
I just wanted to share a quick update on what's been happening in the
project lately.
I'm not sure if anyone is monitoring the issues and pull requests (PR),
but there has been a lot activity over the past few weeks. Most of the
PRs where merged within less then one week. Usually, we have a rule to
keep a PR open for at least one week to cool done. In my experience,
this greatly improves their overall quality.
However, I shorten this period for some of the PRs because they where
blocking others, and I tried to avoid merge conflicts.
The ongoing larger task, is improving the man page. But before refining
the text, I focused on simplifying and making the command line interface
(CLI) more consistent.
I reduced the number of commands from 17 to 10. I also adjusted some
argument/flags. Renamed or removed commands and flags are still there
for backwards compatibility. They are hidden in --help output but will
trigger a deprecation warning when used. The plan is to fully remove
them in two or three years, after the release of Debian 14.
That's all for now.
Regards,
Christian Buhtz
