This release fixes a minor bug with --author and bzr, and updates
the slightly risky[*] Makefile.in files from the previous release.
In case you're wondering what this package does, see
http://www.gnu.org/software/vc-dwim/
Very briefly, there are two tools:
vc-dwim is a version-control-agnostic ChangeLog diff and commit tool.
vc-chlog is a helper tool for writing GNU-style ChangeLog entries.
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/vc-dwim/vc-dwim-1.7.tar.xz
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/vc-dwim/vc-dwim-1.7.tar.xz.sig
Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/vc-dwim/vc-dwim-1.7.tar.xz
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/vc-dwim/vc-dwim-1.7.tar.xz.sig
[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify vc-dwim-1.7.tar.xz.sig
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 7FD9FCCB000BEEEE
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
Autoconf 2.69.77-845e7
Automake 1.13a
Gnulib v0.0-7896-gcbd4daf
NEWS
* Noteworthy changes in release 1.7 (2013-03-15) [stable]
** Bug fixes
vc-dwim now applies --author= for ChangeLog-derived name/email for bzr,
just like it has always done for git.
[*] For details on why the Makefile.in files in 1.6 pose a risk, see these:
