Package: svn-buildpackage
Version: 0.8.0
Severity: wishlist

When called without parameters, svn-do used to execute $SHELL. Such a default was very convenient: in fact I never executed svn-do with any parameters at all. However, with current version of svn-buildpackage simple "svn-do" does nothing:

$ bash /usr/bin/svn-do
I: Exporting source tree via svn-buildpackage...
I: svn-buildpackage --svn-dont-clean --svn-export --svn-no-links --svn-ignore I: Running command: I: Copying back the debian/ tree...

$ echo $?
0


If this change in svn-do's behaviour was accidental, please revert to the original behaviour.

If this change was intentional and it was decided that spawning $SHELL is a bad default, please at least make svn-do fail with a clear error message if no command is provided.
