Bug#788777: debcheckout: Handle Launchpad Git URLs

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.15.5
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Launchpad now supports Git as well as Bazaar.  It would seem to make
sense to support this in "debcheckout -a"; I know it's configurable, but
debcheckout has explicit support for Bazaar on Launchpad, so explicitly
supporting Git on Launchpad as well doesn't seem too unreasonable.
Example package in Debian unstable: germinate.

(Declaration of interest: as well as being a Debian developer, I'm a
Launchpad developer and worked on Git support, so I have some interest
in making it convenient to use. :-) )

Thanks,
