Hi!
I've had for a while a new hook for dupload that adds a transitions
check for Debian hosts, for sourceful uploads targeting unstable (to
avoid disrupting buildd or porter uploads, or uninteresting suites).
I've just finished polishing it, and the main lingering question I've
had all along has been whether you think this would actually be useful
and/or desired at all, see below.
The hook is currently using
https://release.debian.org/transitions/export/packages.yaml, and
prompting in case that source package is part of any ongoing
transition. I wondered also whether checking
https://ftp-master.debian.org/transitions.yaml would be useful,
but I'm not sure whether that is or has ever been used?
You can see the commit at
<https://git.hadrons.org/cgit/debian/dpkg/dupload.git/commit/?h=pu/transition-check>.
For a package currently under transitions such as dart, the hook
output and interaction could be right now:
,---
Source dart is part of ongoing transitions:
auto-tinyxml2 boost1.83
Continue anyway? (yes/NO)
Ok, aborting upload.
`---
So I guess my questions would be whether you think this is helpful or
useful at all? If so, whether the criteria is adequate or it needs to
be changed? Whether this should be a prompt, or maybe only an info or
warning? And any other comment or suggestion you might have!
Thanks,
Guillem

Yes! Have had a browser tab open on this report as a reminder to come
back to this, thanks! :) I've now checked and there were already two
bugs filed (dput: #673343; dput-ng: #802175), which I've email an update
referencing this report with the discussion and the implementation in
dupload.
Closing this report now.
Thanks,
Guillem
