[gentoo-dev] latest commits to dev-lang/go

2012-05-15 Thread William Hubbs 
All,

I know my latest commits to dev-lang/go haven't updated the ChangeLog.

I got into the habbit of using repoman commit -[Mm] to do that, but for
some reason that stopped working.

I will use echangelog from this ponit until I hear that repoman commit
has been fixed.

Thanks,

William

Thanks to Zac's quick assistance on irc, I found that this was an issue
with my repository, not repoman.

So that others don't have the same problem -- what was the issue?

it had to do with the timestamp of the ChangeLog file being wrong. I just
fixed it by doing 

cvs up ChangeLog

while I was in the dev-lang/go directory in my cvs checkout of the
portage repo.

To explain in some more depth:

If the ChangeLog timestamp differs from the one that's recorded in
CVS/Entries, then repoman thinks you've modified the ChangeLog manually
(or with echangelog), and it assumes that it shouldn't try to generate
an entry. You can use repoman --echangelog=force to force repoman to
generate a ChangeLog entry in this case.
