I can't remember all the details but I think at the time we limited to an hour (not that the details matter now). We can always revert again if necessary.. — Chris

Lintian's Gitlab CI pipeline stages
Hi Chris, I noticed that you previously tried to combine the two CI pipeline stages, but then reverted. The timeout is now three hours. Would you mind if I combine them again? My reasons are: 1. When test packages fail to build, other pipelines may still complete. 2. When a pipeline needs to build few or no test packages, it completes faster. 3. The resolution of debhelper-compat (= 13) from stable-backports only needs to be fixed in one place. Your guidance would be appreciated. Kind regards Felix Lechner
Bug#947258: lintian: manpage-without-executable is too strict (false positives for subcommand man pages)

So far, I learned that 'man' interprets two commands by default as a sub-command [1] but I do not know how to tell from a man page that it is for a sub-command like 'git add' instead of a command called git-add. I do not believe there is an annotation for it, although there probably should be. Unless someone has a better idea, I think we have parse the output generated by 'groff -man -Tascii'. Similar to man's strategy [1] a man page would be deemed to relate to a sub-command when the first two words in the synopsis, connected by a hyphen, are the same as the file name.
