Subject: dch: Require EMAIL or DEBEMAIL to be set
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=82750c05dbdd627fa6b6c208f0fef30f6e574639;p=tools%2Fgit-buildpackage.git

dch: Require EMAIL or DEBEMAIL to be set

The alternative would be to set a dummy address in case of
--git-author but that again can use $EMAIL so just fail if
both are unset.

Closes: #987611
