+ for a tag and url where the git objects (including any rewrite
+ map) can be fetched.
+ * Use this information, where provided. Closes:#850431.

+
+ Minor new feature:

+ * Provide `dgit print-dgit-repos-server-source-url'. Re:#850521.
+ * Honour dgit-distro.*.default-suite and dgit.default.default-suite.
+
+ Other improvements:
+ * Improve debugging output a bit.
+ * Use refs/dgit-fetch/DISTRO rather than refs/dgit-fetch/SUITE,
+ which leads to less duplication and so less clutter.
+ * Enforce a reasonable syntax for nominal distro names.
+ * When generating orig+debian/patches view, copy debian/ from
+ HEAD. This makes less noise in diffs. Closes:#850095.

+ * Fail tests if we look up any configuration relating to Debian.
