Hi Andrea,

I hope this help for creating a new git repository.

## Initial package and repository (pkg-php)

$ wget https://github.com/justinrainbow/json-schema/archive/1.3.2.tar.gz

$ ln -s 1.3.2.tar.gz php-json-schema_1.3.2.orig.tar.gz

$ mkdir php-json-schema; cd php-json-schema; git init

$ git-import-orig --pristine-tar ../php-json-schema_2.3.1.orig.tar.gz

## Rename branch

$ git branch -m master debian-sid
$ git branch -m upstream upstream-sid

## Add debian/gbp.conf in debian-sid branch

[DEFAULT]
upstream-branch = upstream-sid
debian-branch = debian-sid
pristine-tar = True

[git-buildpackage]
export-dir = ../build-area/
tarball-dir = ../tarballs/


## Edit  your ~/.ssh/config: (non-DD)

Host alioth.debian.org svn.debian.org git.debian.org
User alioth-username

## Upload your repository (git.debian.org)

$ ../alioth-new-git.sh pkg-php

<http://php.debian.net/alioth-new-git.txt>
(edit /git/pkg-php/php-json-schema.git/description on git.debian.org)

## Initial debian directory
$ git clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-php/php-json-schema.git
$ cd php-json-schema

<edit & commit>

$ git-buildpackage

## Testing with lintian

$ lintian -EvIL +pedantic ../build-area/php-json-schema_2.3.1-1_amd64.changes

 Cheers,
  Prach
