This is pretty similar to a method developed by Manoj Srivastava adn described here: http://arch.debian.org/arch/private/srivasta/ and it's very promising, albeit a little complex for newcomers, in my experience. As linked previously, I presented a similar workflow with git[0] at DebConf7[1]. 0. http://albatross.madduck.net/pipermail/vcs-pkg/2007-June/000001.html 1. https://penta.debconf.org/~joerg/events/53.en.html I actually knew the answers to my questions, I guess, but I was way too confused to get the picture straight.
