use real branches rather than aborting tags

Bug Description

autoppa creates an octopus merge in the source branch that doesn't actually change the source branch. It merges one revision per distribution it has uploaded to, each changing debian/changelog. All of the changes to the changelog are reverted in the merge revision.

It seems this is because it wants to keep the revisions of the old ppa uploads around. It seems it should rather use real branches instead, one per distribution in the ppa.

In my situation, I also wouldn't want it changing the source branch since that's the branch I use to do uploads to Debian.
