Bug#269189: Mail server reference card is outdated

[Loic Minier <lool@dooz.org>]

Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor

     Hi,

 I think the mail server reference card is outdated, for two reasons:
 - it states that you can't merge bugs which don't have the exact same
   tags, but you can (see below),
 - it seems you can include multiple tags on the same "tags" line, but
   there is some mis-parsing.

 Now to give an example of the above problems, I was about to merge
 197265 and 269115, with this:
 tags 269115 +patch +upstream
 merge 197265 269115
 thanks

 But got:
 > tags 269115 +patch +upstream
 Unknown tag/s: +upstream.
 Recognized are: patch wontfix moreinfo unreproducible fixed potato
 woody sid help security upstream pending sarge sarge-ignore
 experimental d-i confirmed ipv6 lfs fixed-in-experimental
 fixed-upstream l10n.

 Which is surprising: it seems the tag is somehow parsed, but the fact
 that it has a leading + doesn't match the list.

 But then, the merge succeeded:
 > merge 197265 269115
 Bug#197265: rxvt: segfault on exit (race condition)
 Bug#269115: segfault upon startup
 Merged 197265 269115.

 (But the mail server reference cards says the tags must be identical
 prior merging.)

   Regards,
