Package: git-buildpackage Severity: wishlist Current snapshot number style workflow supported by git-buildpackage does not fit my workflow.
I'd wish there was a option like 'git-dch --unreleased' which simply added to the changelog an empty entry with the Debian revision incremented by one and target set to UNRELEASED. Then I could work as normally and not commit any snapshot commits, but instead only generate snapshots at build time in my own build array or as Launchpad does it. When all changes are done I'd like to run 'git-dch --release' which would remove the temporary empty entry and replace it with the normal git-buildpackage automatic changelog entry. For this new --unreleased option to work also the --release logic should be updated to be compatible with it. In addition if would be nice that import-orig would follow this same logic and automatically open an empty changelog entry with the imported version number so that I don't accidentally build the new upstream with old version in an un-updated changelog.
