[Debian-med-packaging] Help with watchfile to Gitlab clone needed (Was: Source code of altree vanished)

[Andreas Tille]

Hi,

I migrated the altree package from SVN to Git[1].  I tried to adapt the
suggested template for watch files to Gitlab to the gitlab instance
running at inria.fr:

$ cat debian/watch
version=4

opts=filenamemangle=s/.*\.tar\.gz\?ref=v?(\d\S*)/ALTree-$1\.tar\.gz/g \
  https://gitlab.inria.fr/NGS/ALTree/tags repository/v at ANY_VERSION@/.*archive\.tar\.gz

# https://gitlab.inria.fr/NGS/ALTree/repository/v1.3.1/archive.tar.gz


(The comment contains the real download link.)  Unfortunately the watch
file does not find anything:


$ uscan --verbose

Any hint how to fix this?

Kind regards

     Andreas.
