 Imported Upstream version 1.0~beta3

This is not how to use git packaging branches.

The common practice is to update the 'upstream' branch and then merge
into the master branch. Importing it directly into the master branch
makes it very difficult to track what has changed upstream and thus,
misses totally the point of packaging branches.

Hi, 

I think this was my fault. Sorry.
I had uploaded the 1.0~beta3 to a separate branch called beta3 in the debian 
repository. 
Should I had been calling it 'upstream' and basically from time to time pull 
the changes from bangarang master on gitorious?
If not please be so nice and provide a link to the proper usage. I would 
really appreciate it. 

Cheers,

Andreas Marschke.
