Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
The documentation mentions a few examples of how to use the path-exclude option of dpkg to remove unwanted files from the image. One example does not work for me, which is mentioned on line 6144 of today's mmdebstrap in main:
Looking at dpkg(1) and glob(7) (referenced by dpkg(1)) the curly-braces list glob indeed won't work as this syntax is not mentioned there. It does work in bash, but it seems dpkg does not support this.
I've tried escaping the curly braces using backslashes but that does not help. Splitting out the individual items over multiple dpkgopt lines works fine.
My suggestion is to remove this specific example from the documentation if my finding can be confirmed.
(Btw, thank you for this tool, it is a very nice improvement over debootstrap!)
Thank you! It seems I copypasted this syntax without checking from http://bugs.debian.org/951112
I will just revert
