Hi, Eric. Sorry for not getting in touch earlier. Life's been very hectic with the preparations to this year's DebConf. (BTW, will you be there?).

I guess that I should spend some time to learn this. BTW, I just saw your message to -mentors asking what you should do about forgetting to close a bug in the changelog. I have one suggestion (if you don't do this already): you could use git-dch to fill the changelog automatically for you and, if you stick to the practice of putting the "Closes: #nnnnn" in your commits, the you should have no problems of forgetting to ever close a bug. Here is one example of mine: http://git.debian.org/?p=usbmount/usbmount.git And the rationale: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580621#102 Regards, -- Rogério Brito : rbr...@{ime.usp.br,gmail.com} : GPG key 1024D/7C2CAEB8 http://rb.doesntexist.org : Packages for LaTeX : algorithms.berlios.de DebianQA: http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=rbrito%40ime.usp.br -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
