Right - that's a technical point and we can adapt our workflow. The fact th=
at
Debian (and upstream) uses git is definitely *not* a blocker for collaborat=

from an Ubuntu perspective.

I agree and I share the same goal. Differences are usually introduced becau=
se
of the phases of the release cycles Ubuntu and Debian are in.

One goal is that at the beginning of each Ubuntu cycle Ubuntu should be abl=
e to
simply sync [1] the package from Debian.
