Package: devscripts
Version: 2.14.6
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
thank you for maintaining devscripts.
When there are comaintainers for a package, dch uses their full name
in square brackets to credit them, like this:
package (1.42) unstable; urgency=low
[ Brian Nelson ]
* Fooed the bar
[ Luca Bruno ]
* Barred the foo
-- Enrico Zini <[email protected]> Sun, 24 Aug 2014 10:44:58 -0700
However, as in the example above, the full name is not enough to really
credit the person that actually did the work. This is causing
contributions not to show up in contributors.debian.org, and potentially
also in MIA tracking.
A possible way to address this is to add email addresses together with
full names:
package (1.42) unstable; urgency=low
[ Brian Nelson <[email protected]> ]
* Fooed the bar
[ Luca Bruno <[email protected]> ]
* Barred the foo
-- Enrico Zini <[email protected]> Sun, 24 Aug 2014 10:44:58 -0700
Can it be done?
Enrico
