May be I messed up with Github but I was rather addressing != git.d.o:
$ apt-cache showsrc python-lockfile | grep ^Vcs
Vcs-Browser: https://notabug.org/bignose/debian_python-lockfile/
Vcs-Git: https://notabug.org/bignose/debian_python-lockfile.git

I'm sorry, I have the feeling I have spent to much time into this
discussion even now.
Please just follow my suggestion to join DPMT or don't do it.
Thanks for considering
