No doubt, documentation would be good. I think the most apporiate medium would be introduction of README in bin:runit and short entry in debian/NEWS, like sysvinit does it. > > What buggy behaviour will this change cause for git-run users? > > git-daemon-run use 'update-service --remove' in its maint scripts, so > after #942320 patch is applied, it will set git daemon as disabled on > remove (as it was a user choice) and it will delete the setting on > install. As I remember, git still provides runscript in separate package and does not use dh-runit. How complicated would it be to create patch for src:git that would at least prevented regression due hidden link change? Also, see comments on #942320. -- Note, that I send and fetch email in batch, once in a few days. Please, mention in body of your reply when you add or remove recepients.
