Recent revisions

10. By John Dong

Automated backport upload; no source changes.

9. By James Westby

* Allow empty author information in the changelog for those that like to
  develop without filling it in, and then add it while releasing.
* Drop the dependency on python-deb822 as it is now part of python-debian.
  Thanks to Loïc Minier and Lucas Nussbaum for noticing.
  (Closes: #436386, #436089)

8. By James Westby

* Medium urgency as it will hold up the bzr 0.18 transition.
* Remove any 'debian/' directory from the upstream tarball in merge mode,
  so that the branch contains all of the files that will appear there.
* Allow the changelog entries to have no author information.
* Add a working-tree option to the configuration files that if set always
  builds the working tree rather than the last revision in the branch.
* uscan is now used to download an upstream tarball if the version required
  is not available and the user has a watch file. Thanks to Daniel Holbach
  for the insipration for how to implement this. This makes devscripts a
  dependency. Add a watch file to your package to take advantage of this.
* Add a user manual with some proper documentation. See
  /use/share/doc/builddeb/user_manual/index.html
* Add an import-dsc command to import history from a series of source
  packages.
  - Currently only works for normal and native modes.
  - Currently only does initial imports, incremental imports will come later
    I hope.
  - Can automatically grab any packages from snapshot.debian.net.
* Add a merge-upstream command that allows you to grab a new upstream
  version and merge your packaging changes back in to it.
  - Currently only supports normal mode.
  - Doesn't integrate with uscan yet.
* Remove the need for --ignore-unknowns, as it is no longer checked for.
  The option is still there for backwards compatibility, but it now does
  nothing.

7. By Reinhard Tartler

* adjust the (build-) dependency on bzr so it is usable with bzr 0.17.
* remove bzr (<< 0.17~) from builddeps

6. By Reinhard Tartler

fakesync as just discussed on #ubuntu-devel

5. By Reinhard Tartler

loosen depends, 0.15 works with bzr 0.16 as well

4. By James Westby

* Version designed to work with bzr 0.15.
* Bump depends on bzr appropriately.
* Install the plugin in .../plugins/builddeb instead of
  .../plugins/bzr-builddeb, as the latter is not a valid python identifier
  as is now required by bzr.
* Export the package build to the correct directory name, using the upstream
  version rather than the full version. This removes a warning from
  dpkg-source when building and Closes: #409981. Thanks to James Vega.

3. By Reinhard Tartler

* fix the deprecation warning about 'short options' on every load of
  this plugin with bzr 0.14.
* repack with a full bzr branch in the source

2. By Reinhard Tartler

revert the smart options patch so that the package gets usable with bzr 0.13 again.

1. By Reinhard Tartler

* upload to feisty
* bump depends on bzr on (>= 0.13)
