What are the pro/con and différence compared to gitpkg ?

> design he had; many of us came to the BOF with our own preconceptions.

> it will allow you to adopt a gitish workflow and will let you
> easily import into your git history the changes made in NMUs,
> security updates - and hopefully eventually derivative distros.

> packages (with patch stacks) as if they were git branches. This is
> not yet done because it's quite complicated. See PACKAGE SOURCE
> FORMATS in the manpage.
