enhance: Add comprehensive .gitignore for deb-mock project 
- Add mock-specific build artifacts (chroot/, mock-*, mockroot/)
- Include package build files (*.deb, *.changes, *.buildinfo)
- Add development tools (.coverage, .pytest_cache, .tox)
- Include system files (.DS_Store, Thumbs.db, ._*)
- Add temporary and backup files (*.tmp, *.bak, *.backup)
- Include local configuration overrides (config.local.yaml, .env.local)
- Add test artifacts and documentation builds
- Comprehensive coverage for Python build system project

This ensures build artifacts, chroot environments, and development
tools are properly ignored in version control.

default Release Notes 2.7

Released on - 2020-12-01.

Mock 2.7 new features:

  • External (non-RPM) build requires proof of concept introduced. Initially, there's only a support for PyPI and Crates packages. Any feedback and patches (e.g. for other software providers) are welcome! It is disabled by default. It can be enabled using:
config_opts['external_buildrequires'] = True

and then you can use in SPEC files:

BuildRequires: external:pypi:foo

For more details see feature page.

  • There's a new plugin for pre-processing the input spec files; so the input spec file "templates" are instantiated right before the source RPM build is started. See the plugin documentation for more info.

  • The full mock's NAME-VERSION-RELEASE string is now dumped to the log files, it is now easier to understand what precise Mock version was used during particular package build.

  • Added a new postupdate plugin hook; newly the Mock plugins can implement the automatic "snapshoting" of the buildroot after any package update inside chroot. This was now used by root_cache and lvm_root plugins and they now newly udpate the buildroot cache after dnf update (rhbz#1175346).

  • Mock automatically copies the Katello CA pem file for the local Satellite server into bootstrap chroot, if such CA is configured on host (issue#638).

Mock 2.7 bugfixes:

  • The config_opts['resultdir'] path can contain %-sign, previous versions of Mock failed on processing such configuration (issue#639).

  • The --addrepo <baseurl> option newly doesn't fail the mock build when the <baseurl> directory doesn't exist. This unifies the behavior of that option because other errors/typos in the --addrepo option are ignored as well.

  • Mock doesn't always traceback if the rpmbuild process exists with exit code 11. That exit code only means that there are still some missing "dynamic Buildrequires" (%generate_buildrequires) to be installed by Mock (issue#560). We also enhanced the build.log output a bit so it is more obvious what Mock installs on demand.

  • The bare mock --shell (login shell execution) was fixed so it doesn't call setsid() prior executing the shell itself. This fixes the shell warning message Inappropriate ioctl for device.

  • The sign plugin now treats the non-zero exit code from the configured auto-sign command (usually some rpmsign wrapper). Previous versions of Mock just ignored the failure (koji#2570).

  • Strange failure on RHEL 8 s390x issue fixed by removing one (probably invalid) logging call from preexec_fn, but the PR#653 still needs proper fix (help is welcome).
