Indeed so.  It's also very hard to distinguish from the upload still
being queued.

I'm not aware of a sensible way to tell, automatically and reliably,
whether an upload is still queued, or has been rejected.  Ideally this
information would be available via the
   https://api.ftp-master.debian.org
API but it's not there right now (because that API doesn't seem to
know about queued uploads at all).  I'm not sure the information is
even public!  The last REJECT mail I got myself (a April 2022) was
sent only to me.

This is a problem that we will have to tackle as part of the
planned[1] whole-archive dsc importer.

In the meantime, "dgit fetch" and "dgit clone" produce a warning when
they find an upload in git thatis not visible the archive.
