Package: dgit Version: 2.1 Severity: normal dgit passes --git-debian-branch=dgit/sid to gbp-buildpackage(1), which causes the build to fail when on a branch called 'master'. Since 'master' is the maintainer view, it should be possible to build the package from it.
I worked around this by using `--quilt=gbp sbuild` instead of `gbp-build`.
hephaestus ~/src/helm % dgit
-cdgit-distro.debian.dgit-tag-format=old,new,maint gbp-build
Format `3.0 (quilt)', need to check/update patch stack
examining quilt state (multiple patches, gbp mode)
dgit: split brain (separate dgit view) may be needed (--quilt=gbp).
dgit view: found cached (commit id 6ed7ef2f56fb1de511c8a9b2d95dbfbe86aded88)
