Package: dgit
Version: 8.5
Severity: normal

After starting to use dgit for my uploads recently, I've uploaded grub2
2.02+dfsg1-18 to unstable and grub2 2.04~rc1-1 to experimental.  So far
so good.

However, https://browse.dgit.debian.org/grub2.git/ looks a bit confusing
in light of this.  Firstly, it doesn't list refs/dgit/*, although that's
understandable since IIRC it's hard to persuade cgit to do that sort of
thing.  Less understandably (to me at least), it shows that the dgit
repository has a refs/heads/master that corresponds to the contents of
unstable, but there is no corresponding refs/heads/<anything>
corresponding to the contents of experimental.  I realise that dgit
probably doesn't care about refs/heads/ here, but the net effect is
misleading and confusing when just glancing at the web UI.

I have no idea whether it makes more sense to have dgit push something
like refs/heads/experimental to the dgit repositories or to customise
cgit so that it shows refs/dgit/* instead of refs/heads/* (I guess the
latter is less invasive), but it definitely looks odd as it stands.

Thanks,
