This really wouldn't have made much of a difference. It's trivial to add Andrea's repo as a remote and then the functionality is the same as if the branch were in devscripts' repo. At the time that Andreas started work on this, devscripts wasn't in collab-maint so it made sense to just push his changes to a user repo on Alioth so people could access and review the changes. > > It will also be necessary to prepare a qpatched versions for uscan.1 > > and debian/control. > > I'd happily provide this if I could be sure that this effort is not > wasted in a way that uscan in devscripts simply moves on and I need > to redo the patch later again.

Since that has happened, there has been a lack of time available from existing maintainers. Your work is not wasted, though, since we can integrate your changes regardless of whether they've been rebased on a recent version of uscan. It's "just" a matter of time to review and merge. I will work on this within the next month. Cheers, -- James GPG Key: 4096R/331BA3DB 2011-12-05 James McCoy <james...@debian.org>
