Severity: wishlist

Hi,

currently, when following the dgit-maint-merge man page on how to
debianize a new upstream project that releases tarballs only, one runs
into the following problem:

% gbp import-orig ../foo_1.2.2.orig.tar.xz
gbp:error: 
Repository does not have branch 'upstream' for upstream sources. If there is 
none see
file:///usr/share/doc/git-buildpackage/manual-html/gbp.import.html#GBP.IMPORT.CONVERT
on howto create it otherwise use --upstream-branch to specify it.

So the instructions are missing a step that creates the new branch.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
