Thanks again for the help :-) Emacs-ivy currently has a master-dfsg
branch created by copying the debian/* from master to the imported
upstream-dfsg source.  I've renamed upstream-dfsg to upstream.
Unfortunately I didn't 'git checkout master -- debian' from within the
master-dfsg branch, so when I merged master-dfsg to master I had to
allow unrelated histories and the end result is messier than I'd like.

The emacs-ivy-doc repo is going to be easier because I can rebase as
necessary before the initial push.  Would you like to see all the docs
in emacs-ivy-doc, or only the two non-free ones?

By the way, how soon do we (as pkg-emacsen) have to implement policy
12.4, and can you provide an example of the style we're going to use?
Do we also provide the .org and .md markdown files or convert
everything using pandoc and install that?

Sincerely,
Nicholas
