I'm going to take a risk of offending you with unsolicited advice: I guess you've already tried gbp pq; if you haven't, you almost certainly should. If you're an emacs user, you should try magit if you're not using it already. Finally, it's possible that git-debrebase would suit you better. But git-debrebase has a different git branch format so this is a thing to try out in a personal package first rather than in a big packaging team. > I hope we can switch to tag2upload in debian-med, debian-science and debian-r > as the default way to upload. That would be great. FYI you can see the list what we consider blocker bugs for declaring tag2upload no longer beta, as the Important bugs in git-debpush and dgit-infrastructure. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=unstable;include=severity%3Aimportant;include=severity%3Aserious;include=severity%3Agrave;package=git-debpush;package=dgit-infrastructure The biggest item there is that we want to cope better when Salsa is having one of its flaky phases.
