gotcha, thanks for the explanation and scope of what is in-bounds for
lintian.
I guess if we wanted some version of lintian to be able to check on the
git tag, we need to have some sort of export (git shallow
something-or-other?) that could be included in debian/ to recreate a git
repo that would be sufficient to verify the contents of the files and
confirm the git signature. I don't know how to do that yet though :/
