Hi,

I ran into this same issue today:

± git-debpush --gbp
git-debpush: found upstream tags: v0.1.0 upstream/0.1.0
git-debpush: use --upstream=TAG to say which one to use

Based on Ian's reply to Simon, the "upstream tag" that
git-debpush/git-deborig is looking for is the tag git-buildpackage put
on the commit that represents the upstream import.

I support the idea here of reading the gbp.conf. Basically if --gbp is
given to git-debpush, it could pass --gbp along to git-deborig, which
could understand it should check debian/gbp.conf:upstream-branch and
based on it pick the same tag git-buildpackage would use, in this case
'upstream/0.1.0'.

Thanks for working on this gbp-compatibility feature. In the meanwhile
I will just manually run:

± git-debpush --gbp --upstream=upstream/0.1.0


PS. This bug also discusses pristine-tar support. That is now in
progress via Bug#1106071 in case other people who read this bug report
were not aware of it.
