OK, I've looked at this now. Most of the output there is in debian/
and is a red herring. dgit only cares about upstream files. (I have
cloned this bug to request an improvement here.)
The real problem is that you have files in your orig tarball which are
not in your git branch, but also not deleted by patches.
I guess git-dpm doesn't like to match patches which delete files ?
git-dpm has --no-ignore-deletions but AFAICT from the FM that seems to
do something subtly different. Is there a way to do the equivalent of
dpkg-source --commit --ignore-removal, do you know ?
Thanks for playing pathfinder...
Ian.
