There are some packages (I won't mention names) that have already
started doing this.
Would it be worth creating a concrete proposal to phase out usage of
git-dpm in favour of gbp-pq?
e.g. leave packages as-is, however on next update remove the
debian/.git-dpm config file and unapply all patches. This could also
wait until after the stretch release, however not sure if that matters.
Or would dgit be a better option? I confuse I don't really understand
dgit.
I don't particular care what we move to, however it seems to me that we
really should be dropping git-dpm.
