It occurs to me that this might be usable for workflows where the
orig.tar for the upload is generated with `git deborig` and the upstream
tarball is not used.

Currently, such a workflow[1] involves starting a temporary branch at
the upstream release tag, manually filtering, committing, tagging with
the +dfsg version number, deleting the temporary branch and merging the
+dfsg tag to master.  It would be great if we could instead just type
`gbp import-ref v1.0.0`.
