The Debian Git repository doesn't have any branches for Ubuntu
specifically.

The udd branch seems to be out of date, since the package importer is failing:

http://package-import.ubuntu.com/status/samba.html#2013-07-16 11:23:29.830684

I also don't see any other relevant Bazaar branches on Launchpad:

https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba

FWIW You should be able to just build the Debian Samba package on Ubuntu
without problems.

CC'ing Steve, since he did the last upload to Ubuntu and would know
for sure.

Cheers,

Jelmer
