Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.4.33
Severity: important

For example, upstream tree looks as follows,

A****B****C****D*****(tag v1.2)****E*****F

now, the debian uses the v1.2 as release point and doesn't follow the
development branch so,

                        /---A'---A"---(tag v.1.2-1)
A****B****C****D*****(tag v1.2)****E*****F

Now, I tag master as the upstream and deb. as the debian branch. This
works, but when git-buildpackage builds the tarball, it creates the
orig from the (F) or HEAD of the upstream branch and then applies
patches to the v.1.2-1. Instead, it should have used the base v1.2
tag, the base of the current checkout in the deb branch, as the source
of the orig.tar.gz.
