Git repository of htslib is lacking pristine-tar

[Andreas Tille <andreas@an3as.eu>]

Hi Charles,

$ gbp clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/debian-med/htslib.git
$ cd htslib
$ gbp buildpackage
gbp:info: Orig tarball 'htslib_1.2.1.orig.tar.gz' not found at '../tarballs/'
gbp:error: Pristine-tar couldn't checkout "htslib_1.2.1.orig.tar.gz": fatal: Path 'htslib_1.2.1.orig.tar.gz.delta' does not exist in 'refs/heads/pristine-tar'
pristine-tar: git show refs/heads/pristine-tar:htslib_1.2.1.orig.tar.gz.delta failed

I tried:

$ pristine-tar commit ../htslib_1.2.1.orig.tar.gz v1.2.1
pristine-tar: failed to find ref using: git show-ref v1.2.1

which I took from bedtools debian/README.source.  It seems that the 'v'
in front of the version number in the end needs to be left our here.  I
commited an according README.source.

I admit I'm not yet convinced that the chance to enable upstream pull
requests are worth the drawback that other team members have trouble
to follow an undocumented workflow.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
