Actually "git pull --rebase" was indeed suggested by alexxy on IRC which
might be more efficient in normal cases than my approach (git pull with
subsequent git rebase).

So now it is something like this (without branches):
>$ git clone
... edit ...
>$ git add
>$ export ECHANGELOG_USER="me <me@gentoo.org>"
>$ echangelog
>$ repoman -p full

>$ git push
