No. Where is rewinding discussed? I see nothing relevant in dgit(1).
What do you actually mean by "rewind history"? Is that a

Yes. The copyright REJECTs were because d/copyright had bugs, not
because the content is undistributable. This seems like common

I have tried with 14.8 now. Naive attempt:

So a bit better error message, thank you!
Let's follow what I did earlier:
