Thanks for all the work on dtc!

I'm not seeing a signed tag for v1.4.6, and it doesn't appear in the web
interface either:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/dtc/dtc.git/refs/tags

Fortunately, commit:e54388015af1fb4bf04d0bca99caba1074d9cc42 appears to
be consistent with the contents of the 1.4.6 tarballs.


On a related note, I was wondering if it would be possible to have the
compressed tarballs have their own signature:

  https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/utils/dtc/dtc-1.4.6.tar.sign

Only validates against the uncompressed tarball, which makes
verification of the signature a bit more complicated, having to
decompresss the tarball before verification.

It also means I can not include the signature file in the Debian
archive, as the signature needs to verify against the compressed tarball
in the Debian archive. For this reason especially, it would be nice to
have dtc-X.Y.Z.tar.xz.sign available as well.

Thanks for considering!

Oops, I forgot to push the tag up to the main repo.  Should be fixed
now.

So, that's not under my control AFAIK - it's handed by the kup scripts
that I use to upload blobs.  It handles the compression for me.

Hi everyone.  There have been a number of useful bugfixes added to the
dtc tree since v1.4.5, so I decided to tag another release.  The
signed tag is in the master git tree at:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/dtc/dtc.git

Or you can download tarballs from:

    https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/utils/dtc/
