Hi Joshua,

d/salsa.yml
===========
You can remove it as that is the default pipeline that should be configured from the Salsa CI's repo. I did that for you.

d/copyright
===========
Please fill Upstream-Contact.

The debian/* files are GPL-2+ licensed. Please consider using the same license as upstream at least for debian/patches/*. People might want to use the library according to MIT, which you prevent by choosing GPL-2+ for the patches. And most people would not check for that.

There are more licenses in tests. I have seen Apache-2 in data/hg-added-file.diff, several BSD-3-clause by Alex Holkner, and several GPL-3 from Code::Blocks IDE. You have to copy all distribution licenses (GPL, Apache: use a reference like you already do

d/control
=========
Please provide a better long description for python3-patch-ng.

d/watch
=======
Your files stem from GitHub, so please fix your watch file to actually download from there.

When you are done, please remove the moreinfo tag. Please keep on using the same Debian revision until your package gets uploaded.

Cheers,
Bastian
