Actually, it works wonderfully: you just need to tag the right commit
with -say- `upstream/0.0+git20170808.deadbee`, and then `dch -v
0.0+git20170808.deadbeef-1`. With the right options, it creates the orig
tarball and commits it to pristine tar during the first build.

Not sure about being used, but we compile for mips* and arm*.
