If you're using Debian 12 (or Unstable or Testing), it's as simple as
doing a new checkout of Harfbuzz from Salsa using --with-upstream-vcs

gbp clone git at salsa.debian.org:freedesktop-team/harfbuzz.git --add-upstream-vcs

But if you're still using Debian 11 (or Ubuntu 22.04 LTS), just run
this command in your existing git checkout:
git remote add upstreamvcs https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz.git

Either way, then run this command before trying to import a new
upstream release:
git fetch --all

By the way, harfbuzz 8.0.0 was released a few hours ago.

Thank you,
