Hoewever, in Debian there are tools to automatically detect and download new versions from upstream websites. It parses the content of websites according to a regular expression verifying the version string. This information is somehow contained in a Git repository however, the tools are just acting on http pages. > I would be very happy to help however I can.

Just uploading to the usual place googlecode is providing for this cases a versioned tarball phyutility-<version>.tar.gz or bz2, zip might be fine as well if you consider non-Linux users your main user base - just anything we can immediately from the web page parse the version is fine.
