ITP: mercurial-server -- provide and manage a shared Mercurial repository

[ciphergoth]

I just released version 0.8 of a small bit of software I wrote for work, mercurial-server.

mercurial-server gives your developers remote read/write access to centralized Mercurial repositories using SSH public key authentication; it provides convenient and fine-grained key management and access control.

Now I'm looking for the help of a Debian developer to get the software into Debian, and later into Ubuntu. Any of the Debian developers reading this fancy giving me any advice or getting involved?

• mercurial-server home page
• Blog post about release 0.8
• Intent to Package
• mercurial-server on mentors.debian.net
• Request for Sponsor

Thanks!

Not a problem - it looks like something I should be using for my own hg repos!

As for the changelog that is really matter of personal preference - Its only the "latest" one that will be examined on the Debian-side, and so that one should have the "Closes" entry in it - so you can remove all past ones, or keep them present as you see fit.

Drop me a mail when you're ready, or ever have a new release, and I'll verify pbuider cleanness and upload for you.

All done - thanks again!
