Hi Svante,
Pristine-tar branch guarantees a constant checksum in the sources *.bz2.
The packager should not make changes in the source (this is only for the
developer), all the changes must be done in the debian branch using
quilt. Shortly i will write a little guide explaining how to create the
pristine-tar branch (Joey Hess wrote something about that), etc...
Aitor.

This issue is still hindering me from fully maintain packages, a clear
TODO is needed, preferably somewhere on the Devuan website. I've started
writing one but it is just started. One problem how to create and pull
the pristine tar and other branches: For example policykit-1 (which I'm
one of the uploaders of) has all branches of stable:
#> git branch
* master
patch-queue/master
pristine-tar
upstream
while xfce4-session only has:
master
* patch-queue/master
