Thanks for providing that link.

It states

"You're *completely free* to pick any repository layout and the branch
names above are only gbp's defaults. They can be changed at any point in
time and you can work with an arbitrary number of branches."

The master branch being used by upstream, I opted for the creation of
the debian/sid branch, as described here:

file:///usr/share/doc/git-buildpackage/manual-html/gbp.import.html#GBP.BRANCH.NAMING

By default gbp uses one branch to keep the Debian packaging called
master and a branch to keep the upstream packaging called upstream.

"This layout is simple to get started but fails short if one needs to
maintain several versions of the package at the same time. Therefore the
following layout is recommended:

debian/<release>	
the Debian packaging for a release jessie, wheezy, sid or experimental."

Does this suit our needs to sponsor an upload?

I've built & tested the package on debian/sid and debian/jessie.

Cheers,
ulrike
