Me too.  I don't think the Go team would need to have a general
policy/preference about tag2upload.  I find group-specific policies that
FORBID some existing common workflow pattern to be counter-productive.
It is better to recommend a particular workflow style, but say nothing
if other workflows are permitted or not.  I think the Go policies are
fairly good in this regard.

I think it would be useful to add links to dgit to the Go policies.  I
only found about dgit through use of tag2upload, and only later noticed
that several Go packages had been using dgit.  I think it helps to be
consistent and continue to use dgit for those package, at least for
those co-maintainers who care about this consistency.
