I think there are multiple ways in which git-buildpackage is used. E.g. I use `gbp buildpackage` even for git-dpm maintained packages, to build the source package, etc. (It even has a nicer `clone` command that makes it easy to actually get tracking branches; just wish it had something like `pull-and-update-all-branches` since it's a bit of a PITA to update the pristine-tar branch.) It's just the few things that git-dpm adds on top of gbp that we're discussing getting rid of, like importing a new upstream, managing the quilt patch set, tagging. Cheers, -Barry
