Hi Maxime, I'll take care of this. First, your salsa repo doesn't have neither an upstream branch nor a pristine-tar one. When packaging python packages it's a good practise to follow the python packaging teams guidelines[1], even if you don't intend to have the team comaintain the package. It's not an issue for sponsorship but I think it could be worth considering re-making the repository following these guidelines. It enables to have a clear history of the different upstream releases, a history of the tarballs you used for extracting these releases plus your master branch. If you need some help I'm eager to provide input. :) Can you upgrade the d/watch version, please?
