few repositories I co-maintain missing pristine-tar.
How to add pristine-tar to such existing repo?

I tried:
$ pristine-tar commit ../zita-convolver_2.0.0.orig.tar.bz2
and get:
$ pristine-tar: committed zita-convolver_2.0.0.orig.tar.bz2.delta to branch 
pristine-tar

Better to use the --pristine-tar option of git-import-orig - unless you already pushed your git-import-orig commit so it is too late to role back to do that.

Than I tried build package:
$ git-buildpackage -S
[snip]
fatal: Path 'zita-convolver_2.0.0.orig.tar.gz.delta' does not exist in 
'refs/heads/pristine-tar'
pristine-tar: git show 
refs/heads/pristine-tar:zita-convolver_2.0.0.orig.tar.gz.delta failed
/usr/bin/pristine-tar returned 128
Couldn't run '/usr/bin/pristine-tar'

it looks like git-buildpackage search just for orig.tar.gz and ignore 
orig.tar.bz2

Use git-buildpackage --git-compression=bzip

Or better: add a hint about compression type to debian/gbp.conf. See the source of e.g. morituri for an example.
