Package: darcs-buildpackage
Version: 0.5.12
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/dbp-importdsc
As an experiment, I tried dbp-importdsc'ing old versions of the
"crawl" package from snapshots.debian.net. The resulting patches
could be significantly improved. Just look at the output from "darcs
changes debian/changelog":
Changes to debian/changelog:
Fri Aug 15 12:51:49 EST 2008 Trent W. Buck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* Imported crawl-4.0.0beta26
into Darcs repository
Fri Aug 15 12:51:29 EST 2008 Trent W. Buck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* Imported crawl-4.0.0beta26
into Darcs repository
Fri Aug 15 12:51:09 EST 2008 Trent W. Buck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* Imported crawl-4.0.0beta26
into Darcs repository
The author, date, and changelog description from patches created by
importdsc should be imported from the associated debian/changelog
entry. In particular, the epoch and debian revision should be
preserved!
Here's an example of what I expect darcs changes to print for an
imported patch:
Mon Oct 17 21:00:58 EST 2005 Guus Sliepen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* Imported crawl 1:4.0.0beta26-6.
* Fix possible uninitialised string when casting Blade Hands spell. Thanks
to Ilya Kasnacheev for noticing. Closes: #325706
* Apply patch from Kalle Olavi Niemitalo to fix uncursing of Enchant Armor
spell. Closes: #321082
