+.B dgit print-unapplied-treeish
+Constructs a tree-ish approximating the patches-unapplied state
+of your 3.0 (quilt) package,
+and prints the git object name to stdout.
+This requires appropriate .orig tarballs.
+This tree object is identical to your .origs
+as regards upstream files.
+The contents of the debian subdirectory is not interesting
+and should not be inspected;
+except that debian/patches will be identical to your HEAD.
+
+To make this operate off-line,
+the access configuration key
+which is used to determine the build-products-dir
+is the uncanonicalised version of the suite name from the changelog,
+or (of course) dgit.default.build-products-dir.
+See ACCESS CONFIGURATION, below.
+
+This function is primarily provided for the benefit of git-debrebase.

dgit fails to find necessary git commits.

+.BR --save-dgit-view= \fIbranch\fR|\fIref\fR
