for future reference, this is how you update the package in git (using
git-buildpackage):

# download the source tarball
$ wget
http://download.lighttpd.net/lighttpd/releases-1.4.x/lighttpd-1.4.33.tar.bz2

# cd to your local copy of the git repository
$ cd lighttpd/lighttpd
$ git pull

# ensure you are in the master branch

$ git branch
* master
  pristine-tar
  squeeze
  upstream

$ git-import-orig --pristine-tar /home/arno/tarballs/lighttpd-1.4.33.tar.bz2
What is the upstream version? [1.4.33]
gbp:info: Importing '/home/arno/tarballs/lighttpd-1.4.33.tar.bz2' to
branch 'upstream'...
gbp:info: Source package is lighttpd
gbp:info: Upstream version is 1.4.33
pristine-tar: committed lighttpd_1.4.33.orig.tar.bz2.delta to branch
pristine-tar
gbp:info: Merging to 'master'
gbp:info: Successfully imported version 1.4.33 of
/home/arno/tarballs/lighttpd-1.4.33.tar.bz2


Continue as you are used to know, you can use git-buildpackage instead
of dpkg-buildpackage to take care of git stuff. You may need some basic
git knowledge to add/push commits though.

I started working on lighttpd 1.4.33 right now though so that you do not
need to do anymore this time.
