It looks like there is a slight possible entanglement between uscan v5 and the transition to move git-deborig from bin:devscripts to bin:git-debpush, which I've been working on. We're just finalising the packaging changes in src:dgit[1] and then I was planning to upload both packages to unstable. I didn't realise this would mean I would be releasing uscan v5 :) It's sid, though, we have it for the sake of making transitions. So is it okay with you if I upload both packages as I planned?
