+dfsg is the indication that you have changed something.

pristine-tar has a different meaning, it allows anyone to recreate the
exact same orig tarball (pristine) from upstream branch. If you don't
use pristine-tar branch someone else generating the orig tarball may get
a different tar file (checksums don't match, I think its caused by
difference in newlines or something). See

You can keep them.
