.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
\fBdch-repeat\fR is used to repeat a changelog into an older release. It
expects that \-\-build-tree is laid out with each Ubuntu release as a separate
directory ("feisty", "edgy", etc).
.PP
For example, if gimp had a security update prepared for Feisty in
$TREE/feisty/gimp-2.2.13, running \fBdch-repeat\fR in $TREE/edgy/gimp-2.2.13
would pull in the latest changelog from the Feisty build.
