We were discussing just that at debconf. To add some detail I think we want to - look changes debian/ *and* merge commits on the debian branch for 3.0 source format packages - look at all commits on the debian branch for 1.0 source format packages by default. Patches would be welcome. Cheers, -- Guido > > Regards, > > [1] > https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/s/stress-ng/stable_changelog > > -- > Gioele Barabucci
