+debhelper (7.2.0) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
+
+ * dh: debian/rules override targets can change what is run
+ for a specific debhelper command in a sequence.
+ (Thanks Modestas Vainius for the improved makefile parser.)
+ * dh: Redid all the examples to use override targets, since these
+ eliminate all annoying boilerplate and are much easier to understand
+ than the old method.
+ * Remove rules.simple example, there's no need to use explcit targets
+ with dh anymore.
+ * dh: Fix typo. Closes: #509754
+ * debhelper.pod: Fix typo. Closes: #510180
+ * dh_gconf: Support mandatory settings. Closes: #513923
+ * dh: Support debian/rules calling make with -B,
+ which is useful to avoid issues with phony implicit
+ rules (see bug #509756).
+ * Improve error messages when child commands fail.
+ * Depend on dpkg-dev 1.14.19, the first to support Package-Type
+ fields in dpkg-gencontrol.
+ * dh_gencontrol: No longer need to generate the udeb filename
+ when calling dpkg-gencontrol.
+ * dh_gencontrol: Do not need to tell dpkg-gencontol not to
+ include the Homepage field in udebs (fixed in dpkg-dev 1.14.17).

+debhelper (7.1.1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_install(1): Order options alphabetically. Closes:# 503896
+ * Fix some docs that refered to --srcdir rather than --sourcedir.
+ Closes: #504742
+ * Add Vcs-Browser field. Closes: #507804
+ * Ignore unknown options in DH_OPTIONS. Debhelper will always ignore
+ such options, even when unknown command-line options are converted back
+ to an error. This allows (ab)using DH_OPTIONS to pass command-specific
+ options.
+ (Note that getopt will warn about such unknown options. Eliminating this
+ warning without reimplementing much of Getopt::Long wasn't practical.)

+
+ * dh_installchangelogs: Fall back to looking for changelog files ending
+ with ".txt". Closes: #498460
+ * dh_gencontrol: Ensure misc:Depends is set in substvars to avoid dpkg
+ complaining about it when it's empty. Closes: #498666
+ * dh: Fix typo in example. Closes: #500836
+ * Allow individual debhelper programs to define their own special options
+ by passing a hash to init(), which is later passed on the Getopt::Long.
+ Closes: #370823
+ * Move many command-specific options to only be accepted by the command
+ that uses them. Affected options are:
+ -x, -r, -R, -l, -L, -m,
+ --include-conffiles, --no-restart-on-upgrade, --no-start,
+ --restart-after-upgrade, --init-script, --filename, --flavor, --autodest,
+ --libpackage, --add-udeb, --dpkg-shlibdeps-params,
+ --dpkg-gencontrol-params, --update-rcd-params, --major, --remove-d,
+ --dirs-only, --keep-debug, --version-info, --list-missing, --fail-missing,
+ --language, --until, --after, --before, --remaining, --with
+ * If any third-party debhelper commands use any of the above options,
+ they will be broken, and need to be changed to pass options to init().
+ * To avoid breaking rules files that pass options to commands that do not
+ use them, debhelper will now only warn if it encounters an unknown
+ option. This will be converted back to an error later.

+ * dh: --with=foo can be used to include such third-party commands.
+ So, for example, --with=cli could add the dh_cli* commands from
+ cli-common.
+ * Moved python-support special case out of dh and into a python-support
+ sequence addon. --with=python-support is enabled by default to avoid
+ breaking backwards compatability.
