Is it possible to use 'dch -r' but NOT end up in an interactive editor?

  • 772

I'm trying use dch -r to update the DEBFULLNAME, DEBEMAIL, and TIMESTAMP in a debian/changelog for automated building of a package.

Normally, I'd use dch with -r to do this. But this drops me into an interactive editor. Is it possible to suppress that and just save it immediately?

    Aha! Just specify an empty release string!
