    Wed Feb 16 2022 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.46.0-1
    - Synchronization of default files can now be disabled using a new config
  `files_to_sync`. Key `sync_files` is now deprecated. (#1483)
- Packit now correctly handles colons in git trailer values in source-git commits. (#1478)
- Fedora 36 was added to the static list of `fedora-` aliases. (#1480)

    Fri Feb 04 2022 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.45.0-1
    - A new `packit source-git update-source-git` command has been introduced for
  taking new changes from dist-git (specified by a revision range) to source-git.
  These may include any changes except source code, patches and `Version` tag
  changes in the spec file. ([packit#1456](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1456))
- There's a new configuration option `create_sync_note` that allows you to
  disable creating of README by packit in downstream. ([packit#1465](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1465))
- A new option `--no-require-autosetup` for `source-git init` command has been
  introduced. Please note that source-git repositories not using `
%setup       -q
` may
  not be properly initialized. ([packit#1470](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1470))

    Thu Jan 20 2022 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.44.0-1
    - Packit now correctly finds the release, even if you don't use the version as
  the title of the release on GitHub. ([packit#1437](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1437))
- Local branches are now named as `pr/{pr_id}` when checking out a PR, even
  when it's not being merged with the target branch. This results in the NVR
  of the build containing `pr{pr_id}` instead of `pr.changes{pr_id}`. ([packit#1445](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1445))
- A bug which caused ignoring the `--no-bump` and `--release-suffix` options
  when creating an SRPMs from source-git repositories has been fixed. Packit
  also doesn't touch the `Release` field in the specfile unless it needs to be
  changed (the macros are not expanded that way when not necessary). ([packit#1452](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1452))
- When checking if directories hold a Git-tree, Packit now also allows `.git`
  to be a file with a `gitdir` reference, not only a directory. ([packit#1458](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1458))

    Wed Dec 08 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.43.0-1
    - A new `packit prepare-sources` command has been implemented for preparing                                                                                                                                                                 
  sources for an SRPM build using the content of an upstream repository.                                                                                                                                                                    
  ([packit#1424](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1424))                                                         
- Packit now visibly informs about an ongoing cloning process to remove                                                                                                                                                                     
  potential confusion.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
  ([packit#1431](https://github.com/packit/packit/pull/1431))                                                                                                                                                                               
- The `upstream_package_name` config option is now checked for illegal                                                                                                                                                                      
  characters and an error is thrown if it contains them.

- 
    Thu Nov 25 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.42.0-1
    - Running `post-upstream-clone` action in `propose-downstream` command was fixed.
  This solves the issue for projects that generate the specfile during this action.
- New config option `env` has been added for specifying environment variables
  used for running tests in the Testing Farm. 
- 
    Thu Nov 11 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.41.0-1
    - Packit now supports `changelog-entry` action that is used when creating
  SRPM. The action is supposed to generate whole changelog entry (including
  the `-` at the start of the lines) and has a priority over any other way we
  modify the changelog with. (#1367)
- Fixed an issue, which raised an `UnicodeEncodingError`, when working with
  dist-git patch files with an encoding other than UTF-8. (#1406)
- Backup alias definitions now reflect the official release of Fedora Linux 35. (#1405)
- We have introduced a new configuration option `merge_pr_in_ci` that allows
  you to disable merging of PR into the base branch before creating SRPM in
  service. (#1395)
- Fixed an issue, where spec-files located in a sub-directory of upstream
  projects, were not placed in the root of the dist-git repo when proposing
  changes downstream. (#1402) 
- 
    Wed Oct 27 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.40.0-1
    - Packit will deduce the version for SRPM from the spec file, if there are no git tags or action for acquiring current version defined. (#1388)
- We have introduced new options for generating SRPM packages: (#1396)
  - `--no-bump` that prevents changing of the release in the SRPM, which can be used for creating SRPMs on checked out tags/releases.
  - `--release-suffix` that allows you to customize the suffix after the release number, e.g. reference bugzilla or specific branch of the build. 
- 
    Thu Oct 14 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.39.0-1
    - Bug in Packit causing issues with local build when the branch was named with prefix rpm has been fixed. (#1380)
- We have added a new option to Packit CLI when creating Bodhi updates, you can use `-b` or `--resolve-bugzillas` and specify IDs (separated by comma, e.g. `-b 1` or `-b 1,2,3`) of bugzillas that are being closed by the update. (#1383) 
- 
    Thu Sep 30 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.38.0-1
    - `packit validate-config` was updated to check if files to be synced
  downstream are present in the upstream repo and emit a warning in case they
  are missing. (#1366)
- Patch files are read as byte streams now, in order to support having
  non-UTF-8 characters. (#1372) 
- 
    Fri Sep 17 2021 Packit Service <user-cont-team+packit-service@redhat.com> - 0.37.0-1
    - `packit source-git` init was updated to try to apply patches with `git am` first, and use `patch` only when this fails, in order to keep the commit message of Git-formatted (mbox) patch files in the source-git history. (#1358)
- Packit now provides `PACKIT_RPMSPEC_RELEASE` environment variable in actions. (#1363)
