    <para>
    &git-import-orig; imports the tar.gz archive given by
    <replaceable>upstream-source</replaceable> into the &git; repository. If
    <replaceable>upstream-source</replaceable> is already of the form
    <replaceable>package-name_version.orig.tar.gz</replaceable>, it reads the
    version information from the tarball's filename otherwise it can be
    specified on the commandline via <option>--upstream-version</option>.
   
    When importing the new version <command>git_load_dirs</command> is being
    used to detect file renames and removals.
