Alternatively, you can download the package with 'dget' using this command:
dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/git/git_2.40~rc1+next.20230307-1.dsc
Changes since the last upload:
git (1:2.40~rc1+next.20230307-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* new snapshot, taken from upstream d15644f.
p.s.
I was trying to test bleeding edge git but got blocked by the fact that git and git-man deps were
fighting against each other. As a result everytime apt was trying to uninstall both.
I have decided to take matter in my own hands and I have packaged and tested the latest source from
git git repository.
Everything works perfectly now.
I have uploaded my packages to mentors because I wanted to share my findings with you.

I'd love to see those packages uploaded to experimental.
