My reading of the man page is that --deliberately-not-fast-forward is
the relevant parameter for this situation, but it fails (I'm still on
14.7~bpo13+1) when I try it now (fortunately for this bug report the
package was REJECTED again so I got to retry this). I will hold off
upload until I can retry with 14.8 to see if it behaves different.
The package was REJECTED for copyright reasons and the man page says:
--deliberately-not-fast-forward
...
When pushing to Debian, use this only when you are making a re‐
newed upload of an entirely new source package whose previous
version was not accepted for release from NEW because of problems
with copyright or redistributibility; or, exceptionally, for the
very first upload with dgit.
It warns me to not use the following for this situation:
--deliberately-include-questionable-history
Declare that you are deliberately including, in the git history
of your current push, history which contains a previously-submit‐
ted version of this package which was not approved (or has not
yet been approved) by the ftpmasters. When pushing to Debian,
only use this option after verifying that: none of the rejected-
from-NEW (or never-accepted) versions in the git history of your
current push, were rejected by ftpmaster for copyright or redis‐
tributability reasons.
