+topgit (0.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ The Debian topgit package now provides a Makefile snippet for inclusion from
+ debian/rules, to facilitate the creation of a quilt series from TopGit
+ branches during the package build (and cleanup) step. Please refer to
+ /usr/share/doc/topgit/HOWTO-tg2quilt and /usr/share/topgit/tg2quilt.mk for
+ more information. You can see it in action in the topgit package itself.
+
+ To stop the proliferation of TopGit boilerplate, which could make later
+ maintenance and changes more difficult, you are encouraged to make use of
+ the snippet.
+
+ If you have ideas for other features, I'd be happy to incorporate them.
+ Patches most welcome.
