Hi,
I've been looking through your script at
http://wiki.gnuarch.org/moin.cgi/BKCVS_20to_20Arch_20Script_20for_20Linux_20Kernel
and notice a few things:
* the script will not work correctly if `pwd` or the argument to -d
contain spaces
* rsync is, afaik, not atomic. I don't know how exactly this would
affect the script though
* you can very well leave the 'Keywords' header line out of the log
* is the changelog variable in the awk script guaranteed to start with
a newline? might be worth checking
* the script doesn't work right (due to the home directory munging) if
one wants to sign the archive or use sftp with keys
* it will fail if you don't have a revision library due to using tla
library-remove
Well, that's about it :) Some of these should just be documented, for
example the last item. You might add a safety check to check if a revlib
is used.
