Really? You seem to have created one here:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/git-revise/merge_requests/1
I merged it after review.

I added you as a developer.

Could you hook up the test suite in autopkgtest somehow?
The docbase stuff is usually in HTML, and to make it work you'd need to
build it with the Sphinx package, I think. It would be better to split
that out in a separate -doc package.
Why did you mark the FHS patch as not needing forward? It would seem
like a useful contribution for upstream...
All this can be done in a future incantation though.
The stuff on mentors still has an empty postrm script, so it looks like
it's not exactly the same state as the merge request...
python-git-revise-doc.docs refers to two non-existent files, so that
should definitely be fixed. It would be strange to have README.source
shipped, btw. And README.Debian doesn't need to be in the -doc package.
For the (build-)depends, you might want to split lines on commas to make
future diffs smaller. You can also build-dep on debhelper-compat to pin
an exact version, which also removes the need for the extra
debian/compat file.
Did you audit or review the upstream source?
Thanks!
A.

part because that's what I started from, but mostly because I don’t
trust the industrial structure—they might decide to suppress us
weirdos and try to deny us the parts we need.
