    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
    <para>
    &gbp-import-orig; imports <replaceable>upstream-source</replaceable> into
    the &git; repository. <replaceable>upstream-source</replaceable> can either
    be a gzip, bzip2, lzma or xz compressed tar archive, a zip archive or an
    already unpacked source tree. If it is already of the form
    <replaceable>package-name_version.orig.tar.gz</replaceable>, the version
    information is read from the tarball's filename otherwise it can be
    given on the command line via <option>--upstream-version</option>.
    If the source package name or version can't be determined
    &gbp-import-orig; will prompt for it unless <option>--no-interactive</option>
    is given.</para>

    <para>The sources are placed on the upstream branch (default:
    <replaceable>upstream</replaceable>), tagged and merged onto the debian
    branch (default: <replaceable>master</replaceable>).
    </para>
