As I read this thread back to d-project, ... interesting.  It all started
with:

 http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/a_problem_with_tools/
 http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/an_evolutionary_change_to_the_Debian_source_package_format/

This seems to be much cleaner than dpatch or quilt.  Also with the help
of gitk, history is much more visible.  I look forward to see it matured
and accepted.
