My repository is fork of 'debian/sysvinit'. As far as I can tell, the
following work was done on debian/sysvinit:
* import history from alioth up to 2.89-59.10
* create (very) incomplete upgrade to 2.90 in branch dgit/experimental
What I done:
* incorporated NMU 2.89-59.11
* modernized package a bit

Sysvinit have undecided maintainance status for years, which prevented
me from taking actions previously. But now danger is grave and immediate
(see recent discussions about removal of sysvinit on debian-devel@), so
I took libery to take action right now.
I am sorry, if I stepped on someone's toes. I would greatly appericate
any help in maintaining sysvinit.
Oh, and surely, while I did my best to not introduce any functional
changes in 2.89-60, brave souls to test upload are more then welcome.
