invite the user to first run 'gbp pq import' before using 'import-orig'. However, since the 'replace' merge mode, which is actually the default mode for most packages, 'import-orig' resets the patch queue branch at the end. Which means that all patches are lost and executing 'gbp pq rebase' + 'gbp pq export' do nothing. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.1.51+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE= (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages git-buildpackage depends on: ii devscripts 2.18.3 ii git 1:2.14.1-3 ii man-db 2.7.6.1-2 pn python3 <none> ii python3-dateutil 2.6.1-1 ii python3-pkg-resources 36.6.0-1 Versions of packages git-buildpackage recommends: ii pbuilder 0.229.2 ii pristine-tar 1.44 ii python3-requests 2.18.1-1 Versions of packages git-buildpackage suggests: pn python3-notify2 <none> ii sudo 1.8.21p2-1 ii unzip 6.0-21 -- no debconf information
