[agx@sigxcpu.org: Re: Bug#550340: please ship git-merge-dch as a gbp helper]
JFYI
I think it would totally make sense to try to converge, either getting
rid of our tools once gpb's are ready, or having our tools be front-end
over gbp's tools.
Cheers.

Makes a lot of sense to me. Although I didn't want to bring in another
language into the mix it's probably time to make an exception.

gbp-pq (corresponding to dom-{apply,safe}-patches) was already there
(shipped with 0.4.55). I've written gbp-clone using the gbp helpers to
mimic dom-git-checkout (shipepd with 0.4.57) and gbp-pull is almost
redone using the available gbp code too, hope to find some time to look
at gbp at all during the week.
Dom-new-git-repo needs to be generalized the pkg-ocaml is hardcoded in
there, help on this would be appreciated.
Cheers,
