is there another way people can use to understand how to build the
package?

gbp.conf at least tells you which branches to use (even if you dont use
gbp)

(i dont think anyone is trying to push gbp but there is also a cost for
people trying to reproduce and bugs in working out how to build the
thing. i revently cloned a package and it had both a debian and a master
branch, only gbp.conf told me which to use)
