Perhaps. There's many features I would like to port first.

Once that's done I might consider implementing this properly.

But Junio didn't refuse the proposal, he just didn't respond anymore.
He often does that: initially shows interest in a proposal, then
ignores it.

It's been a while since I've built a debian packages, but you can find
the official source package (Download Source Package):

https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/git

I believe "git_2.30.2-1+deb11u2.debian.tar.xz" is what contains the
debian-specific stuff.

You might have more luck in a #debian IRC channel.

But you don't actually need a package, you can install git anywhere
you want, I use /opt/git:

  make prefix=/opt/git install

Cheers.
