In the past, OTOH don't assume I never used git for packaging; even in that case I rarely *need* to use log; regarding branching it might be useful for huge changes (even if I consider it only useful when developing, not packaging) but the majority - come on - of those dont require branching (or do you branch to change Standard-Versions, or to update debian/watch?). turning down my arguments because "your wf is flawed because you use crappy tool" is kinda weak but I'll accept it.
