<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
&gbp-pq helps to manage quilt patches in Debian packages that are maintained
with &git-buildpackage;. This is especially useful with packages using the
3.0 (quilt) source format. With &gbp-pq; you can maintain the quilt patches
that should be applied to a package on a separate branch called patch-queue
branch. So if your Debian package lifes on <replaceable>master</replaceable>
the associated patch-queue branch will be called
<replaceable>patch-queue/master</replaceable>.
</para>
