This is great! Good job.

Please do. (it looks like the d/copyright thing won't be needed if you
can change the path to debian/gitlab-ci)

That would be great.

Did you see the recent devscripts commit? #811565[1] was marked as pending.

We will be ale to use uscan to watch for new upstream versions. The tool
you are building could make use of this.


Maybe you want to contribute to this script:
 -
https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-go-team/migrate-pkg-go-to-salsa/blob/master/configure-all-projects.py

It protects branches and create webhooks on all repositories in the
"packages" subgroup on salsa. We should add the debian/gitlab-ci.yml
config too so that we can just run the script and have all salsa
projects configured uniformly.

By the way, don't forget to update dh-make-golang too, so that new
repositories have the setting.
