moreutils (0.28) unstable; urgency=low
* Moved to a git repository.
* vidir: Applied patch from Stefan Fritsch (one part of #412176):
- Check for control characters (especially newlines) in filenames
and error out, since this can greatly confuse the editor or vidir.
- If the source of a rename does not exist (and thus the rename will fail
anyway), vidir should not move an existing target file to a tmpfile.
- If a directory is renamed, vidir should take that into account when
renaming files in this directory.
- If a directory name is passed as name/ to vidir, vidir should not
add second slash after the name.
* vidir: Add support for unlinking directories. To recursivly delete
a directory and its contents, pipe find to vidir, and delete the directory
and its contents in the editor. Closes: #412176
* Add example to man page about recursive modification of directories.
Closes: #390099

with syslog format.

moreutils (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
* Remove notes about potential tools from README, moved to wiki.
* vidir: Don't abort if it sees an empty or all-whitespace line.
* vidir: If just a filename is removed and the number is left,
treat this the same as removing the whole line, and delete the file,
instead of trying to rename the file to "".
* vidir: Remove the periods after the item numbers.
* vidir: Man page improvements. Closes: #378122
* combine: Man page improvements, to clarify even more that order does
matter and that the operations are not commutative. Closes: #361123
* combine: The behavior of "or" was fairly strange if lines were repeated in
a file. Changed behavior to just print all lines from both files, even
if this means printing dups. Not sure I like this behavior either, but
it's consistent with the very useful behaviors of "and" and "not".
* vidir, vipe: Use /usr/bin/editor if it's present, and EDITOR and VISUAL
arn't set, to comply with Debian policy. For portability, fall back to vi
if there's no /usr/bin/editor. Closes: #378623

Closes: #361728 * vidir: behave properly if passed a directory name to edit.
