Thanks. However something is wrong with the upstream branch: it includes a
debian/ subdirectory.
Please fix the upstream branch (possibly by writing history): it should contain
exactly the files included in upstream tarball. Don't forget to update the
pristine-tar branch accordingly as needed. One should be able to recreate from
the git a tarball byte-to-byte identical to the upstream tarball. You can check
that it works correctly by moving away your local copy of upstream tarball,
running "gbp buildpackage -S", and verify that the tarball it created is the
same as upstream tarball.
Also please document all your changes in debian/changelog (at least adding the
bump to debhelper compat 10).

The two URLs are not exactly the same. Vcs-Browser has /cgit/ while Vcs-Git has
/git/.
Note that the Vcs-Git URL in your debian/control file is wrong, you should
replace /cgit/ by /git/.
The Debian Science policy is also outdated on this issue, we should fix it.
Thanks,
