Hi Felix,

I looked at git-lab but got completely stuck on the dependencies: they
are very specific, and in particular, go.mod includes the override
line:

replace github.com/spf13/cobra => github.com/rsteube/cobra v0.0.1-zsh-completion-custom

How do you propose to handle that?  I couldn't think of a way to do
so, unless you are able to package the replacement cobra as well.

The version of xanzy in debian/sid on salsa is very out of date - the
upstream version is now 0.22, but debian/sid is lagging on 0.15.

Best wishes,

   Julian
