PACKAGES_LIST_FILE}]
Overview
dpt new-upstream queries UDD's DMD for newer upstream versions, compares the results to the local git clones, categorizes the found packages, and outputs tables by category. If this reminds you of PET -- you're not wrong to assume that there was some inspiration taken from there.
