I mostly use git svn to do Debian kernel stuff. One annoyance with this is that when you want to add/commit a change under /debian/ you have to use -f because the file is in .gitignore (the one which comes from the upstream kernel source).
The patch below removes /debian/ from the upstream .gitignore and also adds some further overrides for the debian/patches dir. I could probably achieve this locally via .git/info/excludes but I figure I'm not the only one using git svn so perhaps it is worth having in tree? It would also be correct if/when we eventually switch to git ourselves. Ian.
