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.

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).

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

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.

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.
