mrb (0.5) unstable; urgency=medium * Add the missing build-indep prerequisite to install-indep. This fixes a broken build when the binary target is invoked without a separate build step. Closes: 1092435 * Package gardening: Use the structured copyright format. Specify Rules-Requires-Root. Use dh compat 13, which supports no-change backports as far as Bullseye. * Special thanks to Andreas Tille for taking some interest in this and documenting his audit of the 0.3 public release in a fork on Salsa. That's a much more valuable contribution than mechanical NMUs making purely stylistic changes which fix no functional problem. -- Ron Lee Wed, 06 Aug 2025 13:13:02 +0930 mrb (0.4) unstable; urgency=medium * Special case gitkeeper host names that begin with a @, excluding them from default pull and push operations. This allows us to define host sections which will only be used when explicitly specified. * Bump to debhelper compat 12. This only gives us no-change backports to Buster (or to Stretch with the stretch-backports debhelper package). -- Ron Lee Wed, 30 Aug 2023 16:01:28 +0930 mrb (0.3) unstable; urgency=medium * Completely rewrite gitkeeper. Since the version in 0.2 was never released, there is no attempt to remain compatible with it. It was an interesting experiment but its shortcomings were too serious to persist with that approach. This one is a much more generic bidirectional mirroring helper, and is not only more powerful, but easier to configure and use too. But the price of this is that it is now written in perl instead of bash, and the configuration is structured JSON instead of simple shell variables. As simple as possible, but no simpler and all that. It is a better suited tool for this job. * 10 year anniversary upload, to close the only bug reported since 0.1 was released, that it didn't build with `dpkg-buildpackage -A`. That's been fixed in git since 2008 though, so we just need to release it. Closes: #831959 -- Ron Lee Mon, 15 Aug 2016 20:18:16 +0930 mrb (0.2) unstable; urgency=low * Added the gitkeeper script. Remote administration and local backups have more in common than might be first expected. * Tweak mrb to permit pulling files from remote sources too. * Sanity check new module names, limiting them to alphanumeric characters and underscore. GNU make is getting more picky about what is allowed in variable names, and it makes sense for us to as well. * Add (more) vim swapfile extensions to the list of example excludes. -- Ron Lee Fri, 4 Jul 2014 04:38:35 +0930 mrb (0.1) unstable; urgency=low * Yes, the world is full of 'simple' backup systems already. And the bts is simply full of old unfixed bugs that point out the errors in their purported simplicity. So here is yet another one, hopefully so simple that it can't possibly ever have (m)any bugs of its own... Hats off especially to Mike Rubel and jw for wanting the right things and stirring this particular broth until my job was simple. -- Ron Lee Tue, 9 May 2006 14:10:19 +0930
