dpt-new-upstream - list packages with newer upstream versions
dpt new-upstream [--help|-h] [--man|-m] [--limit|-l
PACKAGES_LIST_FILE]
dpt new-upstream queries UDD's DMD for newer upstream versions, compares
the results to the local git clones, categorizes the found packages, and
outputs tables by category. If this reminds you of PET -- you're not wrong to
assume that there was some inspiration taken from there.

- --help|-h
- Show this help.
- --man|-m
- Show full manpage.
- --limit|-l PACKAGES_LIST_FILE
- Output the intersection of the full result set and of the
set of packages found in "PACKAGES_LIST_FILE".
"PACKAGES_LIST_FILE" must be in YAML format used by Tails build
manifests, for example:
<https://nightly.tails.boum.org/build_Tails_ISO_stable/lastSuccessful/archive/latest.build-manifest>
Known issue: the current implementation assumes that every binary package on
this list is built from an identically named source package.
dpt new-upstream uses the "DPT_PACKAGES" environment variable.
See
dpt-config(5) for details.
