Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.2.31
Severity: normal
Hi there,
I'm discovering git-buildpackage and using it for the first time; I
wanted to import the "sparse" Debian package in a git repository with
git-import-dsc, but this errored out as follows:
% git-import-dsc ../sparse_0.2-2.dsc

Failed to import Debian package
This is due to the .gitignore file in the upstream tarball.
I don't know whether it's possible to override the ".gitignore" file
name for the duration of the import; an alternative would be to not
import this file at all but display a big warning instead (I would
prefer the file imported though).
Bye,
