Hi,
I'm happy to announce the release of git-buildpackage 0.9.26:

    https://git.sigxcpu.org/cgit/git-buildpackage/tag/?id=debian/0.9.26

Here's a list of changes:

git-buildpackage (0.9.26) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  [ Quanah Gibson-Mount ]
  * [677500d] rpm: Avoid devscript dependency.
    The package is currently not available everywhere.
.
  [ Andrej Shadura ]
  * [231ecef] import-orig: Don’t hardcode the pristine-tar branch
  * [de3c7c8] export-orig: Consistently refer to the pristine-tar branch.
    Since we’re checking pristine_tar_branch, not pristine_tar.branch,
    use the same expression in the log even though it’s not supposed
    to be different.
  * [1065bca] config: Add missing comma
  * [6acd556] deb.git, scripts: Use cannot rather than can not for clarity
    "Can not" may in some cases mean something different than "cannot",
    use "cannot" to make sure there are no misunderstandings.
.
  [ Unit 193 ]
  * [f268448] uscan: Remove pre-devscripts 2.10.70 compat code.
    We can rely on the <target> element being present in dehs output.
    The output it looks for from uscan no longer matches anyway.
.
  [ Guido Günther ]
  * [c8782f2] HACKING: mention how to rerun a single test
  * [bb783b5] HACKING: Document how to keep test repos around
  * [63ce4ed] tests: Fix "test_push_failure" with newer git.
    The test created a broken tag on the remote side to avoid that being
    pushed in the test however git 2.34 and newer fail every push to that
    repo so rather create a non-ff branch instead to make the push fail.
  * [caf64cb] push: Make --debian-tag='' match the documentation.
    An empty Debian tag indicates "don't care" about the packaging branch.
    Don't fail in that case but rather push out up to the branch tip.
    this makes it simpler to push the current development work via
      gbp  push --debian-tag='' <remote>
    But we'll need to add less obscure ways in follow up commits too.
  * [8db5af7] pq: Check if repo is clean before importing patches
    (Closes: #1005321)
  * [dbadeed] rpm.changelog: Drop non breaking space.
    This trips up pydoctor.
    Thanks to Carsten Schönert for debugging help
  * [40b9693] rpm.policy: Drop non breaking space.
    This trips up pydoctor.
    Thanks to Carsten Schönert for debugging help
.
  [ Antonio Terceiro ]
  * [5dcd753] docs: port build system to newer pydoctor.
    According to https://pydoctor.readthedocs.io/en/latest/help.html, the
    command line and configuration parsing has changed in an incompatible
    way. These changes fix the documentation build for me, but are probably
    backwards-incompatible with older versions of pydoctor.
  * [0dfc259] tests: set HOME to an unexisting directory.
    The test suite contains several assumptions about the global git
    configuration, including but not limited to the default branch name
    being `master`. By running the tests against a unexisting HOME, git will
    not load the user configuration and instead use all the git defaults.
  * [1a5fd69] debian/rules: fix build with python3.10 as default
  * [6733ab9] tests: fix input data to create-remote-repo tests
    (Closes: #1010061)
  * [2405e15] push: skip pristine-tar push if already present remotely.
    When one is working on an older branch (stable update or backport), the
    pristine-tar branch may already contain new commits after the one
    corresponding to the upstream version in question. (Helps: #1001163)
.
  [ Nicolas Boulenguez ]
  * [e17d814] scripts: add -v shortcut for --verbose where it has been
    forgotten
    (Closes: #1010750)
.
  [ Roland Mas ]
  * [3627fa0] docs: Fix argument for "gbp pq export --commit"

Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release. As usual the
package is available via Debian unstable:

Cheers,
