I chose to do it that way because I expected that an eventual 1.7.0 release won't include 1.6.1 as an ancestor and I thought it a good idea to have my upstream branch to be fast-forward only. Just before seeing your mail I already asked around for a nicer solution in the corresponding Debian irc channel, maybe I just have to accept a non-ff upstream branch. Shouldn't be a big deal. Your mail is just another confirmation that the currently used scheme is a bad idea. (Another is that the packaging page[1] nags that there is another upstream release that should be packaged.)

Actually, I merged 1.6.1 back into the tip of whatever branch I was using and pushed it to master: d49c0789d208e66121bfb68ff0c48d7612a7cd8e ("Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/lei' into eidx") 8862c33ae93eea1af6246cd3c7a81e0a122186bf ("Merge tag 'v1.6.1' into eidx") > Just before seeing your mail I already asked around for a nicer > solution in the corresponding Debian irc channel, maybe I just have to > accept a non-ff upstream branch.

(Another is that the packaging page[1] nags that there is > another upstream release that should be packaged.) Right, no big deal. Btw, since there's bb928d88ed4c72241a8d76bc792cdbd798e44470 ("www: use PublicInbox::WwwStream") sitting in the stable-1.6 branch, would it be helpful to release v1.6.2 at some point? I think 8b39c0757a7d6d62ff7f432c13ef4c497f1c804e ("ds: import croak properly") is worth pushing to stable-1.6, maybe others... Also, I'd appreciate if you or anybody else helps writing release notes (in the form of what's in Documentation/RelNotes/) since it's a bit of a drag for me. > [1] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/public-inbox ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

Will fix the versioning in the next upload. > Btw, since there's bb928d88ed4c72241a8d76bc792cdbd798e44470 > ("www: use PublicInbox::WwwStream") sitting in the stable-1.6 > branch, would it be helpful to release v1.6.2 at some point? I have that patch already included in 1.6.0-1. :-) So the gain of you releasing a 1.6.2 with that patch is that it becomes more obvious that this patch is already included in the Debian package (assuming I fix the versioning as I intend to do). Having said that I think it's only sensible to release 1.6.2 if 1.7.0 will take some time. Unless 1.7.0 is utterly broken I'd prefer to package that instead of 1.6.2. > I think 8b39c0757a7d6d62ff7f432c13ef4c497f1c804e > ("ds: import croak properly") is worth pushing to stable-1.6, > maybe others... Sounds similar to the WwwStream patch. I didn't notice a breakage though. > Also, I'd appreciate if you or anybody else helps writing > release notes (in the form of what's in Documentation/RelNotes/) > since it's a bit of a drag for me. That's understandable, I don't like writing documentation either :-) I think I'm of no good help here, as I don't follow the development closely and would rather consume instead of produce a release note.
