 Yes, this is basically a known issue - I have to rewrite parts of the

 might probably be best.

I don't think so.

I'm interested importing the upstream tarball, warts and all.

Then I can create a branch of 'upstream' called 'dfsg-upstream', with
the warts corrected.

So I don't think there should be any mechanism to strip out directory
levels, any cleanup should be done in the revision control system.

Cheers,
Anand

Hi,

git-import-orig seems to assume that the upstream tarball will nicely
have everything in a sub-directory. Alas not every upstream is
enlightened:
