This package is maintained using a hybrid of unapplied Git packaging
with merged full upstream history.  For upgrading to newer upstream
tags or snapshots, one should first merge the upstream history into
the `upstream' branch, e.g.

,----
| $ git branch upstream && git merge vX.X.X  # vX.X.X is the latest versioned tag
`----

And then switch to the `master' branch and do the usual `gbp
import-orig --uscan'.  The upstream tag will be `vX.X.X' and the
Debian upstream tag will be upstream/X.X.X.  The pristine-tar branch
will also be updated.

(There may be plans to migrate away from pristine-tar.  This document
will be updated accordingly when that happens.)
