Great, thanks! Actually, it is still quite some journey apt-get :) First
we have to wait for acceptance into unstable by ftpmaster (mostly
copyright review) and then until the next Debian release. Ubuntu tends
to be released more frequently, thus there is a chance your package will
first appear there.

Yes, that's right. Since your package is hosted on GitHub, you will find
a lot of examples of how to do so. There are also examples in 'man
uscan'. You can check how the debian/watch file works by issuing 'uscan
--debug'.
I have just uploaded your package. Please now tag the git commit from
which I did the upload (cb56db7559202fb1dba20909e117e1a8f10f1663) with
'gbp tag --sign'. If you have already added more commits, return to
aforementioned commit first:
$ git checkout cb56db7559202fb1dba20909e117e1a8f10f1663
$ gbp tag --sign
Then push the tag, 'salsa push' will do that for you.
If you are fine with that, I will request moving libtrexio from your
personal salsa user space to debichem (like the Vcs-* in debian/control
state). This way me and other DebiChem members will be able to maintain
this package if need be.
Best wishes,
Andrius
