Hello,

it appeared that the git repository had several problems. So I recreated
it yet another time from scratch.

This means that any existing clone shall be scratched and you should
reclone properly.

$ rm -rf dpkg
$ git clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/dpkg/dpkg.git

This fixed:
- all the commit dates/authors of archives imported by git_load_tree
- all tags (they now point in the master branch)

The history is thus now nicely browseable on:
http://git.debian.org/?p=dpkg/dpkg.git;a=summary

If you had already started to work in your cloned repository, please use
git-format-patch to extract the commits as patches and use git-am to
reapply them in your new repository.

Cheers,
