See the Vcs-Git field in the source packages. If you have the devscripts package installed, you don't even need to look at that and can simply run "debcheckout <package>" to clone the repository. The default branch is debian-unstable, you need to switch to the debian-experimental branch with "git checkout debian-experimental". Obtaining libdrm_2.4.23.orig.tar.gz is most easily done with uscan from the devscripts package, or download http://dri.freedesktop.org/libdrm/libdrm-2.4.23.tar.gz manually. For xserver-xorg-video-nouveau we store the tarballs in a pristine-tar branch, you can recreate the latest with "pristine-tar checkout \ ../xserver-xorg-video-nouveau_0.0.16+git20101210+8bb8231.orig.tar.gz". Or create a snapshot yourself with "debian/rules get-orig-source" which has the advantage that you work with the very latest upstream source.
