Hrm. Obviously it shouldn't do that :-).

Can you provide me a "steps to reproduce" ?
In particular, can you tell me, in
/home/siretart/packages/golang-github-containers-buildah
what commitid is your HEAD and where can I get it?
What .orig tarballs will I need?

That line is trying to bail out due to what it thinks is a violation
of the rpush protocol (between the two dgits). I think it is crashing
because $i_param{'splitbrain'} is undef but $do_split_brain is set.
I think I'll have to repro this locally to diagnose and fix it. I
think there are at least two bugs: 1. whatever caused it to take this
error path 2. when this is detected, the attempt to construct the
error message fails so it crashes even worse.

That's interesting. I preusme that your branch is in fact in
unapplied (gbp) format? So your original invocation (without --gbp)
may have been in error. dgit attempts to detect this mistake and
provide a bespoke error message for it, but (if that's what's
happening here) that isn't working.

Thanks for the kind words. You're welcome.
