Hi,
I'm happy to announce the release of git-buildpackage 0.9.29:

    https://git.sigxcpu.org/cgit/git-buildpackage/tag/?id=debian/0.9.29

Here's a list of changes:

git-buildpackage (0.9.29) unstable; urgency=medium
.
  [ Guido Günther ]
  * [f76f200] clone: Allow to automatically add upstream vcs.
    While "gbp import-orig" supports "--upstream-vcs" since some time to
    link to the upstream git history however setup of the upstream remote
    repo so far was manual.
    To make this more automatic add "--add-upstream-vcs" to "gbp clone"
    (defaulting to False) and set up the upstreamvcs remote in case there's
    sufficient information in debian/upstream/metadata. Once added fetch
    from that remote initially.
  * [37cd681] git-pbuilder: export GBP_{DIST,ARCH,BUILDER} to the environment.
    This makes sure we don't export very generic vars while still being able
    to make decisions based on what was passed to gbp.
  * [2f463b9] config: Print correct default for postunpack hook
  * [5155e98] Build-depend on python3-filelock.
    This works around #1020024
.
  [ Pete Moore ]
  * [907e17a] rpm: Fix flake8
.
  [ Stefano Rivera ]
  * [ccbb64b] Specify a sysconfig scheme in smoke-rpm.
    Debian uses the posix_local scheme by default, since Python 3.10,
    causing the rpm to be built with the incorrect layout.
  * [3954043] Explicitly use the deb install layout when building our RPM.
    Debian defaults to installing to /usr/local, unless told otherwise. This
    is usually done by passing --install-layout=deb to setup.py, when called
    directly. But that's only an option on Debian systems that have this
    patch. Set the environment variable equivalent, instead.

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

    https://packages.debian.org/sid/git-buildpackage

Cheers,
 -- Guido
