The order of apt sources can matter, but this man page did not
previously define whether /etc/apt/sources.list was parsed before or
after the fragment files in sources.list.d. Giving a concrete example
also provides a hint that numeric prefixes are a useful way to force a
particular sort order, and clarifies that the .list or .sources extension
is less important than lexicographic order.

Add 'Include'/'Exclude' options to limit packages used from a repository2025-05-19T15:19:23ZJulian Andres Klodejulian.klode@canonical.com2025-01-29T18:01:06Zurn:sha1:93416f3227685c390c7ab579981efde526134181
'Include' allows limiting a repository to a allowlist of packages,
'Exclude' allows removing packages from a repository.
Implementation wise this is not the nicest as it goes via the
IndexTarget options, so we first parse our option value into a
vector, then we turn the vector into a string, and then vectorize
it again. That said, we support both "," and " " as separators due
to the construction (we split by "," then we join using " ").

As the FTP method is dropped it is probably better to use an example
that actually works. We use https here as that requires no other text
changes as there is a HTTPS session to reuse similar to FTP usage ~ that
is the case for our HTTP, too, but the concept of a session isn't
usually known there and servers who close the connection after every
request are more common.
