Go team in Debian: Stop polluting upstream .gitignore, and but build artifacts in debian/_build
Hi!
Is the Go team in Debian ready to do these changes for new packages?
1. Stop modifying upstream /.gitignore and use /debian/.gitignore
instead if needed
2. Stop putting build artifacts in /_build for new packages and use
/debian/_build instead)
I have been proposing this since 2024 [1] and again in 2025 [2] and
feel we really need to get this done now that the new debaudit service
will potentially start flagging packages that do modifications outside
the debian/ subdirectory, as Debian packages are not supposed to do
that (other than via proper patch).
