I had a look, and wonder: Why use unusual branch naming?

If upstream code was called "upstream" (not "upstream-dist") and our 
packaging was called "master" (not "debian") as is the default for 
git-buildpackage then checking out initially would be as easy as this:

   gbp-clone git.debian.org:/git/pkg-fso/libfsoresource

Would you mind me renaming those branches (causing all current 
subscribers of the git to re-clone, but better now than later)?

Also, would you mind me adding some of the latest cool CDBS additions to 
the packaging, like get-orig-source handling and copyright-check?

The new CDBS features were recently added officially to CDBS after some 
years of maturing locally at the packages that I help maintain, and are 
constructed to optionally not affect backporting-ability of the package.


Kind regards,
