You can of course always set --git-upstream-branch=... to get the correct upstream version but it'd certainly be much better to have this automated. The right thing to do here is to parse the changelog at --export (via git cat-file -p debian/0.2.1:debian/changelog) and get the right revision to pass this as upstream_branch upfront. This makes sure we don't break anything else and it's better readable. Cheers, -- Guido
