commit 6a62aa566c4198c192e4c6a2f28fc1c8ad936411
Author: Otto Kekäläinen <otto@debian.org>
Date:   Sat Feb 22 10:46:23 2025 -0800

    New classification tag: uses-gbp-conf
    
    This would allow https://trends.debian.net/, which is based purely on
    analyzing Lintian reports, to track the prevalence of `debian/gbp.conf`
    use, indicating trends potentially in git-buildpackage usage or in
    packages opting to at least define git branch names or other related
    conventions.
    
    For the actual branch names there exists also
    https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/dep14stats.cgi, but unlike
    trends.debian.net, it has no built-in history view and only shows the
    current UDD database contents state.
    
    Having this classification tag in Lintian isn't a full solution on its
    own, but enables people to build upon it.
