I have released git-ubuntu 1.1. The major addition is the rich history
adoption via changes files and the corresponding `git ubuntu
prepare-upload` command, which many of you have been using already via
the edge channel. This feature is now available in the stable channel.
Install with:
sudo snap install --classic git-ubuntu
or, to switch the already-installed snap back to the stable channel from
the edge channel:
sudo snap refresh --stable git-ubuntu
Preliminary documentation is now available:
https://canonical-git-ubuntu.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/
In between 1.0 and 1.1 were changes to the importer service itself to
import all packages into Launchpad, for which there was no release of
the tooling; hence the apparent delay between releases this time.
Notable changes from 1.0 to 1.1
-------------------------------
Rich history is adopted if a reference exists to it in the changes file
associated with an upload, provided that it can be retrieved and matches
the upload itself. A new `prepare-upload` subcommand provides a low
level CLI interface that developers can script against to integrate into
their workflows. See the howto documentation[1] for details.
Steve Langasek has written an experimental higher level wrapper that
currently lives in the git-ubuntu source tree as `sandbox/gu-build` to
support some common workflows, such as to automatically include the
correct `dpkg-genchanges -v` option automatically for the upload of
package merges. See his mailing list post[2] for details.
The snap is now based on core20.
All packages are imported by default and the manual allowlist
functionality is removed. The denylist exists to stop futile retries for
edge case packages that fail to import; my goal is to whittle this down
to zero.
The importer now automatically sets a repository as default for its
target after it is imported. This means that manual intervention for new
source packages is no longer required before `git ubuntu clone` will
work. Thanks to the Launchpad team for implementing the access control
needed for the importer to do this safely.
