building using git-buildpackage. creating orig.tar.gz help

Code:

fatal: Not a valid object name 0.9.5.0

Means it can't find a branch with that name. So you could again just create that branch.

Code:

$ git branch             
* debian-unstable
$ git branch 0.9.5.0 debian-unstable 
$ git branch 
  0.9.5.0
* debian-unstable

I'm not sure if theres better ways of doing this but seems a reasonable idea to have a branch that matches up to a package version in any case.
