+.TH EDIT-PATCH "1" "June 2010" "ubuntu-dev-tools"
+.SH NAME
+\fBedit-patch\fR \- tool for preparing patches for Debian source packages
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBedit-patch\fR <path to patch>
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBedit-patch\fR is a wrapper script around the quilt, cdbs, and dpatch patch systems. It simplifies the process of preparing and editing patches to Debian source packages and allows the user to not have to be concerned with which patch system is in use. Run from inside the root directory of the source package, \fBedit-patch\fR can be used to edit existing patches located in /debian/patches.
+
+It can also be used to incorporate new patches. If pointed a patch not already present, it will copy the patch to /debian/patches in the correct format for the patch system in use. Next, the patch is applied and a subshell is opened in order to edit the patch. Typing "exit" or hitting Ctrl-d will close the subshell and launch an an editor to record the debian/changelong entry.
+
+\fBedit-patch\fR is integrated with the bzr and git version control systems. The patch will be automatically added to the tree, and the debian/changelong entry will be used as the commit message.
+
+If no patch system is present, the patch is applied inline, and a copy is stored in debian/patches-applied. 
+

+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBmassfile\fR <path to instructions file> <path to list file>
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBmassfile\fR is a script for massfiling bugs against Ubuntu packages in Launchpad. It requires an instructions file describing the contents of the bug report and a list file which lists the packages which the bug will be filed against.
+
+Templates for both files can be found in /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-dev-tools/examples.
+
+.SH EXAMPLES

+
+ subject: [UNMETDEPS] $pack has unmet dependencies
+ assignee: 
+ status: confirmed
+ subscribers: motu
+ tags: unmetdeps

+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBsetup-packaging-environment\fR
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBsetup-packaging-environment\fR aims to make it more straightforward for new contributors to get their Ubuntu installation ready for packaging work. It ensures that all four components from Ubuntu's official repositories are enabled along with their corresponding source repositories. It also installs a minimal set of packages needed for Ubuntu packaging work (ubuntu-dev-tools, devscripts, debhelper, cdbs, patchutils, pbuilder, and build-essential). Finally, it assists in defining the DEBEMAIL and DEBFULLNAME environment variables.
