Package: debhelper
Version: 8.1.6
Severity: wishlist


Manual page reads:

  INTERNALS

       Each time dh is run, it examines the log, and finds the last
       logged command that is in the specified sequence. It then
       continues with the next command in the sequence. The --until,
       --before, --after, and --remaining options can override this
       behavior.

SUGGESTION

The list of commads to run is not mentioned in dh(1) manual page, so
it's quite difficult to know how these options would be used. Perhaps
the program could offer:

       "See option --help-sequence to see list commands run".

       --no-act
           Prints commands that would run for a given sequence, but does not
           run them.

(Like any other debhelper command.)
