The Debian package is pretty trivial to maintain on top of upstream
(thanks to topgit), and I am using it a bit as a test-case for
workflow experiments. However, if you are interested in packaging,
by all means, join me. In that case I'd suggest that you make the
0.6-1 Debian package after 0.6 is out, and I give you some hints up
front and then simply stand by to help out.

But aren't the topic branches essentially also plain Git branches?

I am not sure I understand what you are trying to do.

Awesome. I will try to be available for any support you might need.
I just can't come up with a sufficiently long stretch of time to see
through the next release right now.
