Import a Debian-format source package,
specified by its .dsc,
into git,
make a pseudomerge to bind the import
into any existing git history.
+There is only only sub-option:
+
+.B --require-valid-signature
+causes dgit to insist that the signature on the .dsc is valid
+(using the same criteria as dpkg-source -x).
+Otherwise, dgit tries to verify the signature but
+the outcome is reported only as messages to stderr.
+
If
.I branch
is prefixed with
implying a split between the dgit view and the
maintainer view, the pseudo-merge will appear only in the dgit view.)

+.BR --dgit-view-save= \fIbranch\fR|\fIref\fR
+Specifies that when a split view quilt mode is in operation,
+and dgit calculates
+(or looks up in its cache)
+a dgit view corresponding to your HEAD,
+the dgit view will be left in
+.IR ref .
+The specified ref is unconditionally overwritten,
+so don't specify a branch you want to keep.
+
+This option is effective only with the following operations:
+quilt-fixup; push; all builds.
+And it is only effective with
+--[quilt=]gbp,
+--[quilt=]dpm,
+--quilt=unpatched.
+
+If ref does not start with refs/
+it is taken to to be a branch -
+i.e. refs/heads/ is prepended.
