#10511 — Name of the upstream branch

From"W. Martin Borgert" <debacle@debian.org>
Date2018-05-08 21:40 +0200
SubjectName of the upstream branch
Message-ID<vNgCS-2zO-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
Dear team,

https://wiki.debian.org/Python/GitPackagingPQ#Git_Branch_Names
states:

"we are strongly recommending you use DEP-14 style branch names"

and below:

"upstream - The un-Debianized upstream source."

I ask to change the latter branch name to "upstream/latest",
first, because that's what DEP-14 says, and
second, because "upstream/<version>" is necessary anyway in some
cases and is less confusing then.

Objections?

TIA from the ministry of silly bike shedding.
