Hi, thanks for replying. You have an interesting workflow which I
think I need to ask some questions about before I can document it
fully.

What source format do you use ? What is in debian/source/format, if
anything ? Do you handle orig tarballs at all ?
When you go to a new upstream, you make a new git branch, then ?
Do you publish this git branch anywhere ?

What is that ? manpages.debian.org wasn't any help.
Did you mean dpkg-buildpackage ?
