Good initiative! The last upload of git-dpm was in 2014. But have anyone here tried the new tool git-debrebase (by Ian)? Should it be evaluated before doing a mass change for Python packages? It integrates even better with dgit (of course..) I am trying it out these days. I have had a few problems when setting it up for the first time for some packages, but when it first has been setup, it works very well indeed (so far)! I have reported one bug for initial setup and it sounds like they want to fix. Conversion from gbp to git-debrebase can be done with one built-in git-debrebase command, so maybe not bad in any case to go ahead with the git-dpm -> gbp transition. Best regards, Ruben
