bup for Debian
--------------

The bup source is obtained via git from <git://github.com/bup/bup.git>.

 * The 'master' branch is used to track upstream's master
   * you may wish to add it as a remote to any clone:
     git remote add upstream git://github.com/bup/bup.git
   * we fast-forward merge from upstream's master
 * Debian branches are used to track the debian packaging effort
   * This usually tracks the most recent upstream tag
   * New debian branches are created to track new upstream releases; e.g.
     'branches/0.32' tracks upstream 0.32 releases.
   * we non-fast-forward merge when moving between upstream tags
 * we carry upstream's tags, which are of the form x.xx, e.g. 0.26
 * we prefix our tags with 'debian/' e.g. debian/0.26-1
