Which version of Debian are you running? It might be that the mangle
that I provided works for Wheezy. If I am correct, recently changes were
made to uscan in this field.

I don't understand what you mean. pristine-tar makes sure you can
restore the original tar (with equal checksum) without additional needs.
You already have an upstream branch in your git repo, adding the
pristine-tar is than hardly any effort, with gain for your sponsors or
possible coworkers, that don't need to download the original tar.
