Bug#515856: [debhelper-devel] Bug#515856: debhelper: please implement dh get-orig-source

[Alexandre Detiste <alexandre.detiste@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Here's an example of some ugly get-orig-source:
 https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-games/steamcmd.git/tree/debian/rules

Mea Culpa :-)


The software's version is some timestamp of a file inside a tarball: bad;
I don't really want this scheme supported in uscan; better left it here only.

Greetings,

Alexandre
