Thanks for pointing that out.  It looks like a difference between how
David and I generate source packages from git repositories (he did the
1.0 upload): the only files that are actually changed are

- d/changelog
- dh_elpa.el -- containing the actual changes
- dh_elpa.in -- changes to the POD documenting the changes

The package build process will overwrite the *.1 files, and I don't
think the .git* files matter -- but let me know what you think.

Thanks for the feedback -- I guess that I should try to write the
changelog so it can easily be understood by those not involved in the
pkg-emacsen group.

Hi Sean,

The package at mentors (2016-08-13 03:02) contains more changes than mentioned
in debian/changelog. Can you complete debian/changelog or undo some changes?

$ diff -ruN orig/dh-elpa-1.0 dh-elpa-1.1 |grep "^+++ "

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for a new release of dh-elpa.

My co-maintainer is a DD but his key in the uploaders' keyring has
expired and he can't replace it for a while.

* Package name: dh-elpa
  Version : 1.1
  Upstream Author : David Bremner & Sean Whitton
* URL : https://pkg-emacsen.alioth.debian.org/
* License : GPL-3+
  Section : devel

Changes since the last upload:

  * Attempt to sanitise versions from DEB_* env vars so that Emacs accepts
them as ELPA package version strings.

Download with dget:

dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dh-elpa/dh-elpa_1.1.dsc

Or build it with gbp:

gbp clone https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-emacsen/pkg/dh-elpa.git
git checkout debian/1.1
git verify-tag debian/1.1 # if you have my key
gbp buildpackage

Thanks.
