Just FYI: I use git+TopGit for packaging testng, you may  "debcheckout" it 
if you want to have a look. Works pretty well so far. (Additionally the 
upstream repo is actually Subversion, I'm mirroring it with git-svn.)

That package is maintained outside pkg-java since it was a kind of trial 
balloon for using git. 

I will probably use git for any new packaging work where upstream uses git 
or svn (but wouldn't necessarily recommend switching existing packages).

Cheers,

Marcus
