Hi David,

this will definitely be a nice addition to our group policy, please do not
hesitate to commit it.

I have a few comments:

 - In order to have ones name nicely displayed in the git log, it may be needed
   to do ’git config user.name "$DEBFULLNAME" ; git config user.email
   $DEBEMAIL’, if there is not a more global configuration in place. 

 - Instead of ‘mkdir package-version’ we can use the option -p of dh_make.

 - ’git import-orig /path/to/package_version.orig.tar.gz’ will not create
   the pristine-tar branch without --pristine-tar option.

Have a nice day,
