Again: Git help needed [Was: Re: Bug#661403: sitplus: FTBFS with libconfig9]

[Andreas Tille <andreas@an3as.eu>]

Hi,

I would like update sitplus to new upstream version but I admit I
have no idea how to properly inject the new upstream version into
the Git repository.  The command suggested in policy

  "Example commands to track new branches"

leads to

$ git branch -t upstream origin/1.0.3
fatal: Not a valid object name: 'origin/1.0.3'.

I somehow continue to fail working successfully with injecting full
source in the repository.

Kind regards

         Andreas.

libconfig 1.4.8-2 [1] was uploaded to unstable this morning so you can
now proceed with the sitplus upload. Thanks again for your help during
this transition.
