[Git-dpm-user] import new .dsc complains upstream not uptodate

I created a package with import-dsc --ptc

Made a lot of modifications to it.

I then found out I needed to create a dfsg package.

I created dfsg package externally to git-dpm using current
as starting point. New package has a complete new tarball with new name!

When I try to import new .dsc file it complains upstream exists and is not
uptodate. But the results of pull --rebase show it is uptodate!

How do I import a new .dfsg package without deleting previous history?

Help!
