I've contacted upstream (Vince Buffalo) about tagging a release and pushing the
tag to GitHub. My understanding is that this is a prerequisite of making a
pristine-tar branch. As i understand it, I then add the contents of that
tarball to an entirely new branch? Or can I simply point the branch
'pristine-tar' at the exact commit of the tag and hence tarball (having
imported the git tree into the Debian repository)? I'm still a little confused
about the process, given that the upstream source is in the form of a git
repository.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Kevin
