create Debian Source from GIT repository without tag
Hello Forum,
it appears that for one of my pacage, libgap-sage not to mention it [1],
the upstream source tarbal does not contain the required material to be not
rejected by ftpmaster [2]. So I am considering to create a Debian Source
from the GIT repository. Unfortunately, the GIT repository contains no tags,
so uscan(1) seems not be useful here. I have already submitted a ticket to
the upstream maintainer [3], but he seems to be very busy.
Meanwhile, I want to step forward.
What is the best way to create a Debian Source from the upstream GIT repository ?
Any hint and any (good) example is wellcome.
Thanks in advance,
Jerome
