Ok, I created a tar ball using a git archive (which matches what
github does) and then used pristine-tar to check it in.
gbp can also create tar balls from the same tag and check
in ione step, but somehow the hash does not seem to match
exactly (the content does). I wonder why...

I also want to add octave/matlab/python scripts. But I am not
sure where to put them. I would be nice if there was a way to
add them to the default search path for octave/matlab, for
example.
