Bug#939354: buster-pu: package capistrano/3.11.0-3+deb10u1

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: buster
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

Capistrano is a widely used tool for deployments, one of the steps

of a deployment is to remove the old releases, this consists in removing

the last Nth releases' folders.

Recently a bug has been found when one had too many releases, as they

are removed with the "rm" command, having too many arguments on the

command triggers the "argument list too long" error.

The fix[0] is a small change that splices the arguments in bulks of 100.

Note that the commit is also changing more things, but they're an extra

test and a changelog entry, thus I decided it would be better to add the

whole commit to the package.

In order for the fix to be applied, another commit[1][2] had to be applied

as well so there's no conflict and need to update the fix commit.

I understand an alternative would be to adapt the fix in some way that this

commit is not needed, I see the chosen approach as more stable and reliable

as it's the upstream's code that was well tested, besides this extra commit

being a small change.

In summary I believe this is a problem that should be fixed in stable and

the approach taken was consistent to our stable philosophy.

Let's make buster even more rock solid.

Thanks,
