AFAIK there is not such list.
I know of only two uses of XS-X fields:
- XS-Python-Version (or something like that), mandated by the new python
policy
- XS-X-Vcs-Svn, discussed on debian-devel some weeks ago
There is no standardization for headers related to the vcs used by a
package, but there is currently no drift either. The only packages I
found with such info are Dato's and I inherited from it.
My hope is to standardize it by mere use. To this end I also contacted
Raphael Hertzog to see if I can use this information as part of the
static information in the PTS.
Cheers.
