    https://git.sigxcpu.org/cgit/git-buildpackage/tag/?id=debian/0.9.27

Here's a list of changes:

git-buildpackage (0.9.27) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  [ Guido Günther ]
  * [7717b39] git/repository: Disable signatures when grepping for commits.
    Otherwise get the signature back as well.
    Thanks to наб for the patch (Closes: #1010370)
  * [86b4fd8] config: Use ConfigParser instead of deprecated SafeConfigParser
    (Closes: #1011344)
  * [83e7791] tests: Test import-orig from upstream branch
  * [14ea481] deb: Decode changelog content when fetched from git.
    When importing not form the upstream branch the changelog is fetched
    via `git show`. Decode the bytes in that case. (Closes: #1004354)
  * [4d173ac] docs: Fix --upstream-signature flag description.
    Thanks to Tino Mettler
  * [42a1406] clone: Allow to skip alias expansion.
    Add an option that allow to skip exansion of aliases like salsa:
    by gbp so that git can do that. (Closes: #983085)
  * [9ab4a0e] pkgpolicy: Add type annotations.
    Just enough to  make mypy happy.
  * [39ae57e] Ignore imports without type annotations for now.
    Ignore rpm and libnotify for the moment
  * [92c3fd2] dch: Add minimal type information.
    Just enough to make mypy happy
  * [441bd27] Makefile: add type-check
  * [05ea122] tests: Add "gbp import-orig --uscan" test
  * [36737d2] uscan: Drop pre 2.11 devscripts compat code.
    It's not even in oldoldoldstable anymore
  * [613fcb8] docs: Make --component more prominent
    (Closes: #934200)
  * [7a674e0] docs: Ship gbp-setup-gitattributs man page
  * [14170d6] dch: Don't crash when we fail to get an upstream version
    (Closes: #879495)
  * [25327d1] smoke-rpm: Avoid deprecated distutils
  * [59bf3a6] repository: list_tree: Handle '-'
  * [3e30ce3] repository.get_submodules: Only strip repo path from the
    beginning.  We shouldn't just replace any occurence since we otherwise
    might also substitute in the submodule.
    Based on a patch by "ushen <yshxxsjt715 at gmail.com>".
    See https://github.com/agx/git-buildpackage/pull/82
  * [03348fd] repository: Add helper to prefix branch with 'refs/heads/'
    No attempt is being made to ensure this is a local branch.
  * [a5e6dea] pull: Prefix local branch with 'refs/heads/'
    This can resolve ambiguity when generating the rev list.
    (Closes: #966627)
  * [d2200e4] Add breaks on older dgit.
    See #1005873, #1010061
.
  [ Nicolas Boulenguez ]
  * [ff524f1] debhelper: make package prefix explicit in configuration files.
    This slightly improves readability.
  * [6d1c325] debian/rules: simplify installation of zsh and pk4.
    There seems to be no reason to change their names and permissions
    between the source tree and the eventual installation path.
  * [8742d3f] rules: simplify thanks to debhelper compat 13.
    When dh-sequence-foo is listed in build-depends, debhelper
    automatically inserts dh_foo in the commands.
    override_dh_auto_test is not invoked anymore if DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS
    contains nocheck.
    execute_after_dh_* is available and more readable than override_dh_*.
    Move chmod to execute_after_dh_fixperms for clarity.
    Examples are not compressed anymore.
  * [4c9032e] debian/rules: remove obsolete and unused Make variables
  * [bd529f0] debian/copyrigt: switch to machine-readable format 1.0
  * [36499a8] Move some cleaning from debian/rules to debian/clean
  * [9bdb516] debian/clean: add forgotten files
  * [7740d59] debian/rules: really export GBP_NETWORK_TESTS to tests
    $(MAKE) GBP_NETWORK_TESTS=1
    was setting a Make variable in the sub-Make, but not exporting it for
    test/*.py subprocesses.
  * [71a1556] debian/rules: clean __pycache__ directories generated during the
    build
  * [ee38574] clone: add second allowed form for vcs-git protocol to manual
    page
.
  [ Arnaud Rebillout ]
  * [abce93c] import-dsc: Fix error message when missing debian branch.
    The error message mistakenly talks about the upstream branch when it
    should be talking about the debian branch.
    (Closes: #984516)
