It assumes that the source packages +(specifically, the \fI.dsc\fR and any corresponding \fItar\fR and \fIdiff\fR files) for +both the previous version of the package and the newly built NMU +version are in the parent directory. It then uses \fBdebdiff\fR to +generate a diff between the previous version and the current NMU, and +either runs mutt or an editor (using \fBsensible\-editor\fR) so that +the mail message (including the diff) can be examined and modified; +once you exit the editor the diff will be mailed to the Debian BTS. +.PP +The default behaviour is that if exactly one bug is closed by this NMU, +then that bug will be mailed, otherwise a new bug will be submitted. +This behaviour may be changed by command line options and +configuration file options. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B \-\-new +Instead of mailing the bug reports which are to be closed by this NMU, +a new bug report is submitted directly to the BTS. +.TP +.B \-\-old +Send the bug report to all of the bugs which are being closed by this +NMU, rather than opening a new bug report. This option has no effect +if no bugs are being closed by this NMU. +.TP +\fB\-\-mutt\fR +Use \fBmutt\fR(1) (or \fBneomutt\fR(1)) for editing and sending the message to +the BTS (default behaviour). This can be controlled using a configuration +file option (see below). +.TP +\fB\-\-no\-mutt\fR +Use \fBsensible\-editor\fR(1) to edit the message and then mail it +directly using \fI/usr/bin/sendmail\fR. This can be controlled using +a configuration file option (see below). +.TP +\fB\-\-sendmail\fR \fISENDMAILCMD\fR +Specify the \fBsendmail\fR command. The command will be split on white +space and will be interpreted by the shell. Default is +\fI/usr/sbin/sendmail\fR. The \fB\-t\fR option will be automatically +added if the command is \fI/usr/sbin/sendmail\fR or +\fI/usr/sbin/exim*\fR. For other mailers, if they require a \fB\-t\fR +option, this must be included in the \fISENDMAILCMD\fR, for example: +\fB\-\-sendmail="/usr/sbin/mymailer \-t"\fR. This can also be set using the +devscripts configuration files; see below. +.TP +\fB\-\-from\fR \fIEMAIL\fR +If using the \fBsendmail\fR (\fB\-\-no\-mutt\fR) option, then the email to the +BTS will be sent using the name and address in the environment +variables \fBDEBEMAIL\fR and \fBDEBFULLNAME\fR. If these are not set, then the +variables \fBEMAIL\fR and \fBNAME\fR will be used instead. These can be overridden +using the \fB\-\-from\fR option. The program will not work in this case +if an email address cannot be determined. +.TP +\fB\-\-delay\fR \fIDELAY\fR +Indicate in the generated mail that the NMU has been uploaded to the +DELAYED queue, with a delay of \fIDELAY\fR days. The default value is +\fIXX\fR which adds a placeholder to the e-mail. A value of \fB0\fR indicates +that the upload has not been sent to a delayed queue. This can also be set using the +devscripts configuration files; see below. +.TP +\fB\-\-no\-delay\fR, \fB\-\-nodelay\fR +Equivalent to \fB\-\-delay 0\fR. +.TP +\fB\-\-no\-conf\fR, \fB\-\-noconf\fR +Do not read any configuration files. This can only be used as the +first option given on the command-line. +.TP +\fB\-\-no\-pending\fR, \fB\-\-nopending\fR +Do not add the \fIpending\fR tag. +.TP +\fB\-\-non\-dd\fR, \fB\-\-nondd\fR +Mention in the email that you require sponsorship. +.TP +\fB\-\-template\fR \fITEMPLATEFILE\fR +Use content of TEMPLATEFILE for message body instead of default template. +If TEMPLATEFILE does not exist, default template is applied. +.TP +.B \-\-help +Display a help message and exit successfully. +.TP +.B \-\-version +Display version and copyright information and exit successfully. +.SH "CONFIGURATION VARIABLES" +The two configuration files \fI/etc/devscripts.conf\fR and +\fI~/.devscripts\fR are sourced in that order to set configuration +variables. Command line options can be used to override configuration +file settings. Environment variable settings are ignored for this +purpose. The currently recognised variables are: +.TP +.B NMUDIFF_DELAY +If this is set to a number, e-mails generated by \fBnmudiff\fR will by +default mention an upload to the DELAYED queue, delayed for the +specified number of days. The value \fB0\fR indicates that the DELAYED +queue has not been used. +.TP +.B NMUDIFF_MUTT +Can be \fIyes\fR (default) or \fIno\fR, and specifies whether to use +\fBmutt\fR (or \fBneomutt\fR)to compose and send the message or not, as +described above. +.TP +.B NMUDIFF_NEWREPORT +This option controls whether a new bug report is made, or whether the +diff is sent to the bugs closed by this NMU. Can be \fImaybe\fR +(default), which sends to the existing bug reports if exactly one bug +is being closed; \fIyes\fR, which always creates a new report, or \fIno\fR, +which always sends to the reports of the bugs being closed (unless no +bugs are being closed, in which case a new report is always made). +.TP +.B BTS_SENDMAIL_COMMAND +If this is set, specifies a \fBsendmail\fR command to use instead of +\fI/usr/sbin/sendmail\fR. Same as the \fB\-\-sendmail\fR command line option. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR debdiff (1), +.BR sensible-editor (1), +.BR devscripts.conf (5) +.SH AUTHOR +\fBnmudiff\fR was written and is copyright 2006 by Steinar +H.
