Well, it's not so widely used that 8 out of 10 git package repos I've encountered don't fail miserably to do anything sensible with the default git-buildpackage options. If the decision is for git, please take care with the branch layout so that git-buildpackage *does* work out of the box, and please *do* use the pristine-tar options. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
