General
=======

This package uses the tarball-based variant of the dgit-maint-merge workflow.
Upstream uses git but distributes files constituting a copyright violation with
it. Thus, we do not want to ship upstream's git history but instead rely on
tarballs that were retrieved using uscan and repacked using mk-origtargz and
the Files-Excluded field from debian/copright.

New upstream release
====================

To import a new upstream version, use:

    $ gbp import-orig --uscan

gbp options specific to dgit will be read from debian/gbp.conf
