No, the sentence was not very clear, I try to say: “we can bump version
number of native package only with the --new-version option”.

Sorry, I pointed the line 466, where “guess_version_from_upstream()” was
called, here the link is opened with the focus on the line 466.

I'm not sure to understand this, I proposed to use
“options.upstream_tag” in native case too.

My use case is to bump version number, for example in the case of
git-buildpackage:

- now is at 0.6.13

- next call to “git-dch -a -R” will do 0.6.14

- we must call “git-dch -N 0.7.0” to bump version to 0.7.0, here I want
  to use “options.upstream_tag” to avoid passing “-N”

It looks to me.
