DESCRIPTION

       dpt dch-note is a helper program for adding notes to debian/changelog file. These can be useful for
       keeping track of TODO items or signaling PET to ignore new upstream releases.

OPTIONS

       --ignore
       --ignore-version
           Add an "IGNORE-VERSION: version" comment. This is useful for instructing PET that this upstream
           release contains no changes that warrant an upload, for example changes in META files or fixes
           concerning only non-UNIX platforms.

       --waits package version
       --waits-for package version
           Add a "WAITS-FOR: package version" comment. This is useful to indicate that uploading of this package
           needs another package to be uploaded first. This also instructs PET not to show this package as ready
           for uploading until the required package version is available in the archive.

       --unreleased
           Change distribution in debian/changelog to "unreleased". This is done to indicate that the package
           needs more work and is not ready for reviewing/uploading.
