Hi, using "%forgemeta" with the "-i" option causes debug infor- mation to be output which leads to %changelog entries being garbled: (snip) Therefore, the templates at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/SourceURL/#_using_forges_hosted_revision_control use "%forgemeta" without options and note: | # – remove “-i” and “-v” before commit However, the templates on the wiki page at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Forge-hosted_projects_packaging_automation#Packaging_examples use "%forgemeta -i" and do not clarify that this needs to be amended before committing. It would be nice if the wiki page could be updated to avoid luring packagers into using these templates, perhaps with a hatnote that the content is historical (?) and only the tem- plates in the packaging guidelines should be used.
Hi Tim, Unfortunately, the Fedora wiki is a documentation trap, full of outdated or obsolete pages whose advice should not be followed. Mixed with other pages that have useful content that cannot be found elsewhere, so you cannot simply disregard the wiki either. In this case, the wiki page contains a draft whose final version is in the packaging guidelines. Even though I am not very familiar with the forge macros, I took the liberty to add an easy to spot link from the wiki page to the guidelines and removed the examples that misled you. As far as I can tell, the examples did not have anything that cannot be read from the examples in the guidelines. It could be that the whole page could be removed, but since it contains a collection of links, some parameters that are not mentioned in the guidelines and discussion on how to extend the macros, I left it there. Like I said, I am not expert in forge macros, so if anybody thinks that my edit removal was a bad idea, wiki has an undo button.
