 Git Procedures
 ==============

-As of October 9, 2015, the DPMT uses git as the version control system for all
-packages, and git-dpm as the patch management regime.
+At the time of writing, the DPMT uses ``git-buildpackage`` to maintain the
+packaging, which inherently uses Git for version control.
+
+Previous DPMT policy requires ``git-dpm`` to manage patches as well as
+packaging.  However, we reverted the choice and use ``quilt`` to manage the
+patches, while using compatible tools like ``gbp pq`` is allowed, as long as
+compatibility to ``quilt (3.0)`` format is retained.
