Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.4.61
Severity: normal

I've obtained the upstream tarball with uscan. That means, that uscan
creates either a symlink named package_version.orig.tar.gz or with the
--rename version renames the upstream tarball this way.
When I afterwards call git-import-orig with --filter
--filter-pristine-tar and --pristine-tar, I get:

Cannot symlink '../solr_1.4.0.orig.gbp.tar.gz' to
'../solr_1.4.0.orig.tar.gz': File exists

I could imagine two solutions:

- The user is not allowed to have such a file in the directory
- Temporarily move the conflicting file away
