# devscripts (2.10.19) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
#
# * checkbashisms:
# + Use Getopt::Long for option parsing
# + Add an option to force checking of scripts that would normally be
# skipped (Closes: #469023)
# + Clarify in the manpage that some issues detected by the script may
# be XSIisms etc rather than strictly bash-specific features
# + Add checks for suspend, caller, complete/compgen, declare/typeset,
# disown, builtin, set -[BHT], alias -p, unalias -a, local with
# options or an assigned value and $BASH(_*). Thanks to Raphael
# Geissert for the patch (Closes: #469050)
# + Modify each of the simple shell variable tests (e.g. $RANDOM) to
# also match ${variable}
# + Identify and ignore multi-line quoted text (Closes: #464641)
# + Reorder a couple of checks so that ". foo $HOSTNAME" is detected as
# source passing arguments rather than misuse of $HOSTNAME
# + Fix a potential false positive on "2>& 1"
# + Fix an unescaped hyphen in the manpage
# + Add a check for function names containing characters other than
# alphanumerics and underscore
# + Modify the "read without variable" test to also catch options other
# than -r. Thanks Luca Capello (Closes: #470696)
# + Add an option to allow flagging of lines which do not contain bashisms
# but which may contain other useful information - for example, checking
# whether $BASH is set before using bashisms or $RANDOM being used as a
# local variable rather than the bash built-in variable (Closes: #470999)
# + Add a check for "VAR+=foo" (Closes: #471001)
# + Also detect <<< inside a quoted string (Closes: #471059)
