hi, everything i can fix pretty easily, except:
Also, you did not use git-dpm, as mandate inside the DPMT:
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/GitPackaging

there are a lot of tutorials which explain how to start a repo from scratch
using DPMT, but it's hard to know what to do with an established repo. i
could easily solve this by nuking the repo and starting over, but this is
frowned upon.

Mind sharing with Jonathon how you successfully solved it? :)

so do i start out be reverting all the commits after the original `gbp
import-orig blah.orig.tar.gz`, and then do all the DPMT stuff after that?

that would be kind of ugly...

any advice here would be appreciated.

It's possible, not well documented maybe, but with some trials and
thoughts it can be done.


From memory, I used :

git-dpm record-new-upstream --allow-changes-in-debian-branch --new-tarball-only <path-to-tarball>

That is ugly but tames the beast...
