My one experience with this was not very successful, although I'm sure it was pebkac, and yes I should have filed actual bugs if I found them (but was under a crunch at the time). IIRC, where I would normally apply a quilt patch, edit the file, and refresh the patch, I always ended up with every modification as a separate d/patches file, even though I thought I was rebasing it correctly. Oh well - I'm curmudgeonly pretty comfortable with the svn-buildpackage set of tools and workflows, which the DPMT still prefers. I need to play more with gbp and git-dpm, the latter which IIRC felt smoother. Is there any emerging consensus on which of the two git-based package development regimes is "better" or "more popular"?
