This makes sense. We don't even need an extra parameter --git-branch since we can simply use what's there for branch naming. I'd simply add a --git-clone-from option: $ git-buildpackage --git-debian-branch=sid --git-upstream-branch=upstream --git-clone=git://git.debian.org/pkg-multimedia/vlc.git -S We can then simply invoke gbp-pull with these options from within git-buildpackage: gbp-pull --debian-branch=sid --upstream-branch=upstream git://git.debian.org/pkg-multimedia/vlc.git I'll have to finish some other things first before looking at it so patches are (as always) welcome.
