 Thanks for bringing this feature to my attention! 
  
 I just thought I'd try it out, so here's some additional data for the 
 curious 
  
 https://bugs.debian.org/1111114 - feature request 
  
 https://salsa.debian.org/debian/devscripts/-/commit/0eb2557c2ab8 
 b319208f66aee76b5270ce498ff 
 - implementation patch 
  
 this has landed in 2.25.19 (sid) 
  
 I don't already have debian/upstream/metadata, so the jury out to some 
 extent as to which is preferable 
  
 +Archive: GitHub 
 +Repository: https://github.com/rheit/zdbsp 
  
 or 
  
 +Version: 5 
 +Template: Github 
 +Owner: rheit 
 +Project: zdbsp 
  
 ; I suppose the former is potentially usefully consumed by other tools. 
  
 (On my TODO list is also to find out if/how I can specify a sha1 hash 
 suffixed version, intended to correspond to a specific commit in a git 
 repository, and have uscan download the appropriate tarball)
