Package: pristine-tar Version: 1.33 Severity: wishlist When git-buildpackage is doing its thing in a repo with no pristine-tar branch but with several remote pristine-tar branches, an internal pristine-tar checkout gives the following error.
pristine-tar: There's no local pristine-tar branch. Several remote pristine-tar branches exist. Run "git branch --track pristine-tar <remote>" to create a local pristine-tar branch c37c6f8c5322217cc5041bde8bade11d45f45830 refs/remotes/github/pristine-tar c37c6f8c5322217cc5041bde8bade11d45f45830 refs/remotes/origin/pristine-tar If there were only one remote pristine-tar branch, it would just use that and everything would be fine. I wish it would realize when there are several but they all point to the same commit, as above, and just go ahead and use it.
