This really wouldn't have made much of a difference.  It's trivial to
add Andrea's repo as a remote and then the functionality is the same as
if the branch were in devscripts' repo.  At the time that Andreas
started work on this, devscripts wasn't in collab-maint so it made sense
to just push his changes to a user repo on Alioth so people could access
and review the changes.

As stated before, we were originally waiting for the (longish) Wheezy
freeze to finish and release.  Since that has happened, there has been a
lack of time available from existing maintainers.

Your work is not wasted, though, since we can integrate your changes
regardless of whether they've been rebased on a recent version of uscan.
It's "just" a matter of time to review and merge.

I will work on this within the next month.

Cheers,
