Among other things, it enables users to run 'dgit clone', and get an up-to-date, patches-applied copy of the most recent source package. But it seems to me that you are contemplating whether or not the team should be using dgit. This is also not a decision that needs to be made prior to any switch away from dgit-dpm, you can start using dgit at any point. Best, -Nikolaus -- GPG encrypted emails preferred.
