Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.7.2
Severity: important
This problem compromises our ability to use git-buildpackage to manage quilt
patches.
It seems that "gbp pq export" incorrectly drops the "Gbp-Pq: Topic" strings that
are set in the patches.
Additionally if a new patch is created and it contains
"Gbp-Pq: Topic misc" in the commit message, then the new patch is not placed on
the misc directory.
Let me know if you want me to file another bug for this second problem.
To reproduce:
git clone git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-mutt/mutt.git
gbp pq import
git checkout master
gbp pq export
git status
Cheers
Antonio

Ok, sorry it wasn't clear that dropping the headers was the expected behavior.
