[git-buildpackage] Patches applied in master?

[Nikolaus Rath]

Hello,

When reading up some discussions on gbp/dgit interoperability, several
people alluded to the theoretical possibility of using gbp with a
patches-applied master branch.

Is this officially supported? If so, how do I use it?

The number one thing that has always stopped me from using gbp is having
to study diffs of diffs when comparing two debian/nnn tags. 

Best,
-Nikolaus
