uses-gbp-conf

The package appears to use git-buildpackage (gbp) for package maintenance, as indicated by the presence of a gbp.conf configuration file.

This is an informational tag to help classify packages using git-buildpackage for maintenance. Git-buildpackage is a suite of tools that helps with maintaining Debian packages in Git repositories.

Note that as git-buildpackage does not mandate only one specific workflow, the mere presence of a gbp.conf file alone does not necessarily mean the package is fully maintained with git-buildpackage. Package maintainers might be using gbp only for cloning a repository, for importing new upstream versions to get the git branches pulled and updated correctly, to manage patch queue git branches or to automate debian/changelog updates based on git commits.
