Just tagged and pushed ‘debian/1.1.5+dfsg.1-1_bpo8+2’.  Note that I
moved jessie-backports's HEAD to its parent first as is was on
debian/1.1.6+dfsg.1-1_bpo8+1 which didn't make it to bpo.  Running

    git branch jessie-backports debian/1.1.5+dfsg.1-1_bpo8+1

before pull should fix this.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
