+Upstream prepares a couple of deliverables for each release, for
+example https://github.com/jabberd2/jabberd2/releases has the
+following files for 2.3.3:
+
+  jabberd-2.3.3.tar.gz
+  jabberd-2.3.3.tar.xz
+  jabberd-2.3.3.zip ("Source code zip")
+  jabberd-2.3.3.tar.gz ("Source code tar.gz")
+
+The first two files contains the non-free jquery.js file.  The latter
+two files does not.  Unfortunately, the tar.gz filenames are called
+the same, but the content differs.
+
+For Debian packaging, we use the final tarball as the source, thus
+avoiding the need to repackage the upstream source.
+
+For historical reasons however, we still use the git branch
+'upstream+dfsg' for tracking the upstream source code.  See gbp.conf.
+

 We describe here one way to work with the package sources.
 
 Initialize cowbuilder:
 
-sudo cowbuilder --create --distribution sid --mirror http://http.debian.net/debian --debootstrapopts "--keyring=/usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg" --basepath /var/cache/pbuilder/base-debian-sid.cow
+git-pbuilder create
 
 Optionally update cowbuilder:
 
-sudo cowbuilder --update --basepath /var/cache/pbuilder/base-debian-sid.cow
+git-pbuilder update
 
 Clone the repository:
 
-git clone git at gitorious.org:gss/jabberd2-dpkg.git
+git clone git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-xmpp/jabberd2.git
 
 Build the package:
 
-git-buildpackage --git-pristine-tar --git-builder="pdebuild --auto-debsign --pbuilder cowbuilder -- --twice --basepath /var/cache/pbuilder/base-debian-sid.cow"
+gbp buildpackage --git-pbuilder --git-pbuilder-options=--twice
 
-If all goes well, you should have newly built packages in
-/var/cache/pbuilder/result/.
+If all goes well, you should have newly built packages in ../.
 
 Update the package to a new upstream release (don't forget debian/changelog):
 
-git-import-orig --pristine-tar /path/to/new-release.tar.gz
+gbp import-orig /path/to/new-release.tar.gz
