Hi,
I was tired of the broken[0] upstream vs. debian approach in the
flamerobin packaging repository[1] so I went back to bare git-svn
clone of upstream and then created the debian branch from scratch,
cherry-picking all debian-related commits. The result is a new
repository on the same place with much cleaner merge history.
[0] see the history in gitk - a real mess

If you used to pull from it, that will break now. If you don't have
any local changes, just wipe out your copy and clone again. If you do
have local changes, I'd love to see them in order to incorporate them
in the new repository :)
The old repository is still available as flamerobin-mocked.git[2].
Removal is scheduled for two months from now (September 11th).

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
As a bonus, I've set up a cron job that will fetch from upstream trunk
and publish the changes in upstream branch daily.
