use @CHANGEPATH@ as placeholder in changelog URI templates

2015-12-02T11:59:23Z

This should make it more obvious that CHANGEPATH is a placeholder which apt will replace with a package specific path rather than a string constant. Mail-Reference: <87d1upgvaf.fsf@deep-thought.43-1.org> Mail-Archive: https://lists.debian.org/debian-dak/2015/12/msg00005.html

update manpage last-modified from git via pre-export hook

2015-11-25T14:20:10Z

Never updating this information is wrong, updating it automatically isn't super correct either, but it seems conventional to have it and updating it more often than needed seems better than updating it never. Git-Dch: Ignore

add binary-specific options via Binary scope

2015-11-04T17:04:02Z

Especially with apt now, it can be useful to set an option only for apt and not for apt-get. Using a binary-specific subtree which is merged into the root seems like a simple enough trick to achieve this.

add by-hash sources.list option and document all of by-hash

2015-09-14T13:22:19Z

This changes the semantics of the option (which is renamed too) to be a yes/no value with the special additional value "force" as this allows by-hash to be disabled even if the repository indicates it would be supported and is more in line with our other yes/no options like pdiff which disable themselves if no support can be detected. The feature wasn't documented so far and hasn't reached a (un)stable release yet, so changing it without trying too hard to keep compatibility seems okay.

sources.list and indextargets option for pdiffs

2015-08-27T16:16:50Z

Disabling pdiffs can be useful occasionally, like if you have a fast local mirror where the download doesn't matter, but still want to use it for non-local mirrors. Also, some users might prefer it to only use it for very big indextargets like Contents.
