Guess I should have checked in sid too :) Another upside of the Perl implentation though: backporting to buster is downright trivial. Though I guess with the bullseye release around the corner that's not quite so important now. > > - I plan to maintain this package myself, though I am looking for a > > sponsor. > > I can probably sponsor it. Or you can ask in pkg-perl (cc'ed). That'd be awesome, I'd be happy to put it under pkg-perl team-maintanance as well though. --Daniel

Bug#987884: ITP: git-autofixup -- Automatically fixup commits with related changes
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Daniel Gröber Hi list, I am working on packaging git-autofixup a program to help with amending git commits during code review. * Package name: git-autofixup Version : 0.003001 Upstream Author : Jordan Torbiak * URL : https://github.com/torbiak/git-autofixup * License : Artistic 2.0 Programming Lang: Perl 5 Description : Automatically fixup commits with related changes git-autofixup creates fixup commits from changes in the worktree. This can save the tedious work of amending fixes into the appropriate commits during codereview. Changes to consider are parsed out of git-diff(1) and git-blame(1) is used to assign hunks to commits since the revision given on the commandline, which will typically represent a topic branch. Then it creates fixup commits to be used with git rebase --autosquash. - There is another program called git-absorb which performs essentially the same function as git-autofixup but is written in Rust instead of Perl. Since Perl is much easier to package in Debian I went for the latter ;) - I plan to maintain this package myself, though I am looking for a sponsor. --Daniel
