dfsg-cleaned upstream archives, darcs or git?

2012-04-10 Thread Iustin Pop
Hi all, What's the best way to handle DSFG-cleaned upstream archives? It seems to me that since in darcs we record only the debian/ directory, we don't have a way to track the upstream sources correctly, so it's not well-suited for DFSG-cleaned archives. With git-buildpackage, there are two
