You wrote this one day after I posted the recommended debian/gbp.conf
template in https://lists.debian.org/debian-go/2025/11/msg00006.html,
I wonder if you read that message?

You can simply copy the line `upstream-vcs-tag = v%(version%~%-)s`
from the template - it works without any modifications for your
golang-golang-x-mod

Plese, *never* modify the `upstream-tag` setting. That is what gbp
uses to signify what was the upstream import. It is a tag created by
git-buildpackage.

For a visual explanation of all the git-buildpackage branches and tags
see https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/debian-source-package-git/
