-So it would be possible to write a `git-debrebase' tool which would
-take (for example) B4, above, and be able to perform functions like:
-
- * Strip pseudomerges: Rewrite the current branch so it contains no
-   pseudomerges, turning ...B3 into ...@-A-1-2-B3.  (This should
-   make a note, in your .git/ somewhere, of the original branch
-   tip so that it can be overwritten with a pseudomerge.)
-
- * Cleanup branch: Reorganise the current branch so that the debian/
-   changes come first, turning -@-A-1-2-B3 into ...@-A-B-1-2-3.
-
- * New upstream rebase: Start rebasing onto a new upstream version,
-   turning ...#..@-A-B-1-2-3 into (...#..@-A-B-|...#'-)@'-1-2.  This
-   would be a wrapper around git-rebase, which prepares @' and then
-   tries to rebase 1 2 onto @'.  So if you ask for an interactive
-   rebase @' doesn't appear in your commit list.
-
-   Note that the construction of @' cannot fail because @' simply
-   copies debian/ from B and and everything else from #'.  (Rebasing A
-   and B is undesirable.  We want the debian/ files to be non-rebasing
-   so we can `git log' and get the packaging history.)
-
- * Record pseudomerge.  This is like "committing" your patch queue.
-   The LH parent is taken from the previously recorded tip.  (We could
-   perhaps check that this is consistent with what we see in
-   debian/changelog, but that is not a sufficient check so the
-   recorded tip check is primary.)
-
-Maybe some of these operations should automatically edit
-debian/changelog.

-Sean Whitton writes ("Re: Feedback on 3.0 source format problems"):
->  Does the [breakwater] branch contain debian/ alone?
-
-No, it also contains a complete unmodified copy of the upstream code.
-(Except that if upstream had a debian/ directory, it is completely
-replaced.)
-
-For `3.0 (quilt)' the breakwater branch contains roughly what you
-would get if you untarred the origs and the debian.tar.gz, and then
-deleted all the patches without applying them.
