2017-06-28error in update on Release information changesDavid Kalnischkies
The value of Origin, Label, Codename and co can be used in user configuration from apts own pinning to unattended upgrades. A repository changing this values can therefore have serious effects on the behaviour of apt and other tools using these values. In a first step we will generate error messages for these changes now explaining the need for explicit confirmation and provide config options and commandline flags to accept them.

2017-01-17Release 1.4~beta41.4_beta4Julian Andres Klode
We are basically frozen now, but (a) this wildcard thing is a bit "explosive" to call this RC and (b) you never know if you might need to add a new tiny feature and freeze can be long...

2016-12-31add --indep-only for build-dep commandDavid Kalnischkies
The implementation is quite different compared to --arch-only due to ABI reasons but functionality wise they are similar and usually both available for symmetry at least. Closes: #845775

I probably missed that when I did the usability work. But better late than never.

2016-08-17add --with-source option and Packages/Sources supportDavid Kalnischkies
We support "./foobar.deb" as a way to install a deb file directly. Recently .changes files were added. This highlights a problem as you can't add the changes file without also trying to install all of them. Now, it could also be handy to add entire Packages/Sources files to perhaps get a bunch of packages in without installing them all implicitly. This commit introduces --with-source which allows to add *.deb, *.changes, *.dsc, source-dirs, Packages & Sources files (the later can also be compressed) without also installing them.

2016-06-22forbid insecure repositories by default expect in apt-getDavid Kalnischkies
With this commit all APT-based clients default to refusing to work with unsigned or otherwise insufficently secured repositories. In terms of apt and apt-get this changes nothing, but it effects all tools using libapt like aptitude, synaptic or packagekit. The exception remains apt-get for stretch for now as this might break too many scripts/usecases too quickly. The documentation is updated and extended to reflect how to opt out or in on this behaviour change. Closes: 808367

2016-05-16document --no- as --show-upgraded is the defaultDavid Kalnischkies
--show-upgraded is the default since 906fbf8886926eeb302332d997c9bd861291e155 so documenting it as if it would be an option having an effect as is feels wrong and we do the same for other options like install-recomends, download, …, too. This commit also removes -u from the documentation, but still supports it in the commandline parsing. Eventually we should deprecate the short option, but for now lets just stop documenting it. Closes: 824456

2016-05-08implement Identifier field for IndexTargetsDavid Kalnischkies
A frontend like apt-file is only interested in a specific set of files and selects those easily via "Created-By". If it supports two locations for those files through it would need to select both and a user would need to know that implementation detail for sources.list configuration. The "Identifier" field is hence introduced which by default has the same value as "Created-By", but can be freely configured – especially it can be used to give two indexes the same identifier.
2015-11-25update manpage last-modified from git via pre-export hookDavid Kalnischkies
Never updating this information is wrong, updating it automatically isn't super correct either, but it seems conventional to have it and updating it more often than needed seems better than updating it never. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-08-14Make auto-remove and auto-clean aliases for the versions without -Julian Andres Klode
Some people type them instead of autoremove and autoclean, so make them happy. Closes: #274159 Makes-Happy: Ansgar
2015-08-14Replace --force-yes by various options starting with --allowJulian Andres Klode
This enables more fine grained control over such exceptions.
2015-08-10rename 'apt-get files' to 'apt-get indextargets'David Kalnischkies
'files' is a bit too generic as a name for a command usually only used programmatically (if at all) by developers, so instead of "wasting" this generic name for this we use "indextargets" which is actually the name of the datastructure the displayed data is stored in. Along with this rename the config options are renamed accordingly.
2015-08-10add sources.list Check-Valid-Until and Valid-Until-{Max,Min} optionsDavid Kalnischkies
These options could be set via configuration before, but the connection to the actual sources is so strong that they should really be set in the sources.list instead – especially as this can be done a lot more specific rather than e.g. disabling Valid-Until for all sources at once. Valid-Until-* names are chosen instead of the Min/Max-ValidTime as this seems like a better name and their use in the wild is probably low enough that this isn't going to confuse anyone if we have to names for the same thing in different areas. In the longrun, the config options should be removed, but for now documentation hinting at the new options is good enough as these are the kind of options you set once across many systems with different apt versions, so the new way should work everywhere first before we deprecate the old way.
