This package history is managed on salsa:

Differences from the generic workflow described below, for this
particular package:

* upstream svn got some activity since 0.8.0 release, although not
  impacted the files we use; they are included in a single patch
  exported from a commit on "upstream" branch
* upstream includes debian/ dir, I removed it with a special commit
  on "upstream" branch to be able to use the workflow as described

Thus as of upstream version 0.8.0 the "upstream" branch is ahead of the
upstream tag.


==== >8 ====

These branches are used:

upstream:     tracks upstream release
pristine-tar: material to reconstruct orig tarballs from upstream branch
debian:       debian packaging, including patches in "3.0 (quilt)" format
patches:      the paches from debian/patches, exported as shown below

"upstream" and "debian" branches have disjoint histories.  "patches" is
rebased on new upstream releases.  "patches" is used for the working dir
(.../$PACKAGE/) and "debian" is for the debian dirs (.../$PACKAGE/debian/).


Expected workflow:

* commit packaging changes in debian/ (thus on branch "debian")
* commit changes to upstream code to branch "patches", rebase and
  amend them as needed; export them to debian/patches (see below)
  and commit the debian/patch changes together with any other
  related packaging changes (typically at least a changelog entry)


debian/patches/ generated by:

 git format-patch -N --subject-prefix="" -o debian/patches/ upstream..patches

debian/patches/series is updated by hand (for now).
