Hi!
Thanks for the suggestions, I have updated
https://pad.debian.net/p/Role_model_README.source.md accordingly. Is
this perhaps now the most optimal version?

Looking at https://sources.debian.org/src/git-buildpackage/0.9.35/examples/gbp-upload/
and other scripts in the directory I see they are mostly just wrappers
for dput && gbp tag && git push. If there was a direct "gbp upload"
command that users could trust will always do they right thing, I
could recommend it, but right now I don't feel it makes sense to
recommend an additional script as it adds yet another layer of
abstraction, and it is hosted in folder "examples" which does not
instill confidence that it is something people should actually use, at
most just read and copy/modify for their own use. If we ask people to
take a script and modify it to their own use, then its not really
simplifying the process.. I hope to get to a point where there is just
one README.source.md that for a given package is *the* correct way (or
at least the most optimal and recommended way) to handle that
packages' lifecycle.
