I use the “merge when building the source package” workflow, where the upstream source is a tarball outside the working tree, not part of the Debian packaging VCS at all. See ‘git-buildpackage(1)’, the ‘--git-overlay’ option. Is that still a wholly compatible workflow with what is being proposed? -- \ “Admiration, n.
