With git, you can have a master branch for upstream things and a
debian/gentoo/... branch for distribution related packaging patchs.

With svn it's a little bit more hard but you can have a good overview by having
a look how the pkg-perl team on alioth work.

Well I started this thread because I like having every tools in a same place.

But Im not upstream, it is a proposal for the x2go upstream community.

I don't know if he is subscribed, it was in the case he is not so he could
comment.
