Dulwich is maintained in parallel in both Bazaar and Git. Since bzr-git 
doesn't support roundtripping yet, I have to dpush to get the changes 
into Git.

Usually I remember to dpush to Git before I push to Bazaar (so the 
rebase isn't visible to anybody) but sometimes I forget, and I have to 
push --overwrite later after I've dpushed to Git.

Cheers,

Jelmer
