Upstart scripts have been removed from Lix, since Upstart is obsolete and has
not been shipped by any major distributions for many years. If these are
necessary to your use case, please back port them to your packaging.
un-ups your start We do not need upstart, it is so thoroughly obsolete that we should not care about supporting it. Change-Id: Ie0ca084740845555fddffacc899cd129c9a4c1fe 2024-03-18 23:11:12 +00:00			`---`

build: replace changelog-d with local script hacking changelog-d to support not just github but also forgejo and gerrit is a lot more complicated than it's worth, even moreso since the entire thing can just as well be done with ~60 lines of python. this new script is also much cheaper to instantiate (being python), so having it enabled in all shells is far less of a hassle. we've also adjusted existing release notes that referenced a gerrit cl to auto-link to the cl in question, making the diff a bit bigger closes https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/176 Change-Id: I8ba7dd0070aad9ba4474401731215fcf5d9d2130 2024-03-26 17:32:25 +00:00			`cls: 574`
