Sorry, I'm not quite sure how exactly can I do that... You mean I should configure a remote (git remote add github https://github.com/repo/repo) then git fetch github git rebase github/master then what? Merge to "upstream" branch and tag there manually? > Otherwise you can just use gbp import-orig and ignore upstream's git > history, but I prefer the other approach when possible. I couldn't care less about upstream history and actually for the sake of importing mock-up tarball I want to entirely ignore upstream history. But how can I do "gbp import-orig" without tarball? Sorry, I'm still very confused... -- Cheers, Dmitry Smirnov. --- A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others. -- Ayn Rand
