Ouch. - And librdf-vcard-perl is already an exmaple. And the package also doesn't build to well (with git-buildpackage) if there is no changelog entry for the new version at all. I've played a bit with git-dch --snapshot which works around this issue. But I guess we don't want to have it's idea of a changelog pushed. (And it's a specific tool again.) I guess we want to have at least a short entry with the new version and "New upstream release." and PET commands in the pushed repo ... Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
