gbp epxort-orig should is able to create tarballs from
`origin/pristine-tar` when the `pristine-tar` branch does not
exist. This fails with --upstream-on since these are not
searched for on that branch:

This https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=959159 seems as
a duplicate of https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=850167

In both cases a `origin/pristine-tar` already exists but
git-buildpackage does not automatically use it, because a local
`pristine-tar` branch didn't exist.
