Handle maintainer email changes
Usage
dpt rename-uploader
full
name
old
email
new
email
Overview
dpt rename-uploader walks over all package directories and changes any occurrences of author's old email address in debian/control and debian/copyright with their new email address. It is handy when an uploader became a Debian Developer and wants to use their [email protected] address.
A suitable entry is added to debian/changelog, but nothing is committed.
Repositories with uncommitted changes are not touched and a warning is issued.
