You could apply to become a team member, then you'll get write access.

Hmm, are you sure:

$git bundle verify ~/virtualbox-ose_4.0.4-dfsg-2~bpo60+1.bundle
The bundle contains 1 ref
181de00272b548d241b4c116806fd016e2b4893c HEAD
The bundle requires these 1 ref
9d4f495883ae7b1ad8c5ae63d5ba972fc3c4248e Prepare for upload.
/home/michael/virtualbox-ose_4.0.4-dfsg-2~bpo60+1.bundle is okay

I haven't used git bundle before but shouldn't it show both changes?

Actually no, I would leave your name in, credit where credit is due.
