Hello Marc, thank you for reporting this. I'll look into it and patch the d/rules clean-target. In the meantime, you can use git-buildpackage's [export] feature as a workaround, making it a bit more user friendly to use scratchpad directories. Something along the lines of git add -u && gbp buildpackage --git-export=INDEX --git-ignore-new should work (called from the collab-maint/borgbackup.git clone) Cheers, Danny [export]: http://honk.sigxcpu.org/projects/git-buildpackage/manual-html/gbp.building.html#GBP.BUILDING.EXPORT
