I don't really care. Inline comments are fine.

I had the same problem with another importer and used lftp:
update-command: if [ ! -e /org/udd.debian.org/tmp/upload-history/ ]; then mkdir /org/udd.debian.org/tmp/upload-history/; fi; rm -rf /org/udd.debian.org/tmp/upload-history/*; wget -q -r --no-parent -nd -A debian-devel-* -P /org/udd.debian.org/tmp/upload-history http://qa.debian.org/~filippo/ddc/
Not sure if that would work for you, though.

Well you can either wait for me to find time to merge it, or do the work
yourself (you'd just need git uddadm). I'm fine with either way.
