Note that "gbp buildpackage --git-ignore-branch" or the gbp.conf
equivalent
[DEFAULT]
ignore-branch = True
or more concise x
[buildpackage]
ignore-branch = True
works and is supported:
https://github.com/agx/git-buildpackage/blob/master/tests/component/deb/test_buildpackage.py#L277
(it's just that "gbp import-orig --ignore-branch" never existed)
So automatic testing of PRs on github should still work. Let me know if
it doesn't.
