Hot on the heels of Release 15 comes Release 16.
This release deals with some issues that have been discovered with the
check for update feature of Release 15 and the |force_every| and
|trigger_exclude| features, so that it now works correctly with those
features.
It also features these items:
* a new |--check-for-work| mode of run_branches.pl
This mode doesn't do any work but exits with a zero status if there
is work to do and 1 if there is not. It is intended for use as an
ExecCondition in |systemd| units
* up to date filtering now works with an explicit list of branches, as
well as with key words like |ALL|
* reduce the verbosity of |"Another process holds the lock"| messages.
These are now only emitted if the |verbose| setting is greater than 1
* |update_personality| now has options to change the owner name and
owner email
This was in Release 15 but was accidentally omitted from the release
notes. Up to now the only way to change these was by action from
the administrators.
* improve collection of logs in cross version upgrade testing
