Bug#1011311: RFS: colordiff/1.0.20-1 -- tool to colorize 'diff' output

It would be helpful to me just to clarify a few things, because I'll be
honest: I don't have a huge *understanding* of Debian packaging, merely
a small amount of experience of doing so and many years of general
Linux-ness ;-) Apologies if my questions seem a bit basic!
I can add extra line to changelog, no problem. Would you say it's OK to
use the same version 1.0.20-1 simply editing the text given that this
version hasn't gone live yet, or should I bump it to 1.0.20-2?
Yes, please just edit the changelog without raising the version.
The changelog follows the versions that are released on Debian archive, not mentors.
Please replace the unmeaningful line "Minor packaging tidying."
With regard to "removing debhelper", do you mean change
Build-Depends: debhelper (>> 9.0.0), debhelper-compat (= 13)
to
Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13)
in my debian/control and then rebuild the package?
Exactly.
Finally, "please untag moreinfo on a new upload" -- does this mean I
should create a *new* RFS (i.e. will become a new Bug) once package is
rebuilt? I'll read docs about how to 'untag moreinfo'.
No, the RFS is kept. The docs are at https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control.
Always respond to the bug address also, so any DD can pick up when nobody responds.
