* The real thing release: upload the real 0.39, not a damaged version;
* fixes: "debdelta _append_() wrong number of arguments", thanks to
  cybjit (Closes: #585079) for noting.

* Reviewed messages printed (at different verbosity levels) .
* Inside the delta, the internal script uses shell pipes,
   to reduce usage of temporary files .
* Set Homepage: http://debdelta.debian.net
* etc/sources.conf : use debdeltas.debian.net, thanks to Paul Wise
   for the suggestion, and thanks to the Bononia people (Closes: #517942).
* xdelta3 (>= 0y) can use a FIFO for the input source (a.k.a
   the old version of the file). When using '--delta-algo xdelta3'
   the delta now, in its internal script, can process all old files
   in one pipe, w/o using many chunks stored in temporary files. Such
   deltas are marked by a new internal feature 'needs-xdelta3-fifo'.
   This is disabled by '--disable-feature xdelta3-fifo'
* debdelta/debdeltas : store incomplete delta files as delta_tmp_ , are
   renamed when they are completed (and tested, and signed, if required)

14. By a. Mennucc on 2010-02-04

* debdelta-upgrade :
  - properly distinguish when prelink fails due to low disk space,
    or simply because the file did not need to be unprelinked, or else
  - small changes to progress reporting
  - -v -d , prints the URI of missing deltas
* debdeltas : huge rewrite
  - big speedup in scanning repositories, less disk access
  - remove option --clean-alt
  - add option --old (note that, if no '--old' arg is specified,
     then no deltas will be generated; this is different from
     previous versions of debdeltas)
  - different meaning of --alt option
  - rewrote man page, with many examples
* add new script /usr/share/debdelta/debmirror-deltas (a complex script
  that creates a repository of deltas, that can be used by
  debdelta-upgrade for upgrading packages in
  lenny,squeeze,sid,experimental )

13. By a. Mennucc on 2010-01-01

* debdelta-upgrade
  * when < 50MB disk space, 'prelink -u' fails : report it

12. By a. Mennucc on 2009-12-08

* switch license of man pages to
   GNU Library General Public License (version 2)
  (same as the code), with permission of the author
* patching : fix forensic report
* debdelta-upgrade
  - better progress reporting
  - if '-v' , report info as apt-get does (Closes: #557780).
