+Transitioning to a New Upstream Version in a Nutshell
+=====================================================
+
+When upstream releases a new version, we should follow these steps:
+
+### Merging new upstream tag (`zsh-$version`) into our upstream branch
+
+ % git checkout upstream
+ % git pull origin
+ % git fetch zsh
+ % git merge --ff-only zsh-$version
+
+### Merging the branch upstream into the branch debian
+
+Merge `upstream` into `debian`: git merge upstream.
+
+Make the commit message something like:
+
+ New upstream release candidate 5.6.2-test-2
+
+ Merge branch 'upstream' at 'zsh-5.6.2-test-2' into branch debian
+
+### Create a debian/changelog entry for the new upstream release
+
+Use `gbp dch` as a base and then remove all lines which are not
+debian-specific and which do not relate to a Debian bug report. Add
+Debian bug report references (`Closes: #nnnnnn`) as necessary.
+
+Use the tagged upstream commit and the merge commit where the upstream
+release was merged into the debian branch as referred commit ids.
+
+Example:
+
+ * [9dbde9e,bf8b7f7] New upstream release candidate
+ + [dc2bfeee] Have V07pcre fail if PCRE was enabled by configure
+ (config.modules) but failed to load for any reason. (Closes: #909114)
+
+ [ Axel Beckert ]
+ * [abcd1234] Some debian-specific change generated by gbp dch from
+ the git commit message.
+
+Commit it as follows:
+
+ % git add debian/changelog
+ % git commit -m "Update debian/changelog for new upstream release" -m "Gbp-Dch: Ignore"
+
+### Remove all quilt patches which are applied upstream
+
+All patches applied (or fixed otherwise) upstream should be removed
+from `debian/patches` directory and the `debian/patches/series` file.
+
+Example:
+
+ % quilt push -a
+ % quilt pop -a
+ % git rm debian/patchees/cherry*
+ % $EDITOR debian/patches/series
+ % git add debian/patches
+ % quilt push -a
+ % quilt pop -a
+ % git commit -m "Remove all patches applied upstream"
+
+### Create the fake orig tar ball (until we can work with upstream's tarball)
+
+This requires the upstream release to be properly tagged.
+
+ % make -f debian/rules get-orig-source
