.SH BUGS
-dgit is not nearly configurable enough. The locations for dgit-repos
-(on alioth) and for the Debian archive are currently hardcoded.
-There is not yet any support for suites which are in different
-distributions to Debian.
-
dgit will only work with packages in main. The madison http query API
does not give the component.
sane way to find the path in the archive pool of the .dsc for a
particular suite.
+Debian Policy needs to be updated to describe the new Vcs-Git-Master
+field (and to specify that it is an RC bug for that field to refer
+to an unavailable commit).
+
+dgit push should perhaps do `git push origin', or something similar,
+by default.

The mechanism for checking for and creating per-package repos on
alioth is a hideous bodge. One consequence is that dgit currently
only works for people with push access.

The option parser requires values to be cuddled to the option name.

+--dry-run often does not work with fetch, even though this is a
+logically plausible request. (It fails, instead.)
