[request-tracker-maintainers] git repo at risk; upstream branch breakage

Hi all,

I just noticed that the upstream branch (and thus master
which is merged from upstream) has ended up not being descended
from the old upstream with the commit history back to 4.0.1.
This appears to have been caused by git-dpm import-new-upstream,
of 4.0.10 (the first use of git-dpm in this repo), even though it is
not expected to do this.

I don't know why this has happened; clues welcomed if anyone knows
what's going on here, otherwise please take this as a warning that
I may have to do a forced push to repair things, meaning that anything
based on the current master (post-4.0.10 import) will need to be 
rebased.

Dominic.
