Basically, this is "Ubuntu Distributed Development" (UDD) but for Debian & Git (instead of Ubuntu & bzr). Have you looked at UDD? They have been doing this for multiple years and have much more experience than us here. I'm sure there a quite a few things to learn from what they did to not redo the same mistakes. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/udd-intro.html https://launchpad.net/udd I'm putting James Westby in CC (as I believe he's one of the core UDD developers, and also a Debian contributor). He might want to review dgit and share his hindsights. Among notable differences there's that dgit contrary to UDD decentralizes the creation of the branch with all the archive uploads. But I never used UDD and don't know it well enough to comment much more than that.
