--help, -h print usage information
--version, -V print version information
--file, -l <file> changelog file to parse, defaults
to 'debian/changelog'
-F<changelogformat> ignored if changelogformat = 'debian'
for compatibility with dpkg-dev
-L<libdir> ignored for compatibility with dpkg-dev

output formats, defaults to 'dpkg'
for compatibility with dpkg-dev

--offset, -o <number> change the starting point for --count,

6.

If neither C<changelogfile> nor C<-l E<lt>fileE<gt>> are specified, F<debian/changelog> will be used. If two different files are specified the program will abort.

7.

If the filename is C<-> the program reads the changelog from standard input.

8.

C<--all> overrides all other range selecting options. C<--count> overrides all other range selection options except for C<--all>. The range selecting options can be mixed together, but only one of C<--since> and C<--from> and one of C<--until> and C<--to> can be specified at the same time.

9.

The dpkg and rfc822 formats default to showing only the first entry when no other options are given with while the HTML and XML formats default to showing all entries.
