No, dh-make-golang subcommands are fairly new and undocumented. I filed
https://github.com/Debian/dh-make-golang/issues/91 to track the cleanup I
had planned.

I agree with mwhudson’s reply — go-team as group name is what we settled on
(see my thread on the subject, which had a long feedback time window). I’m
okay with the compiler team being a subgroup.

Can you explain why the maintainer address needs to be changed in the same
step as the repository move?

As far as I’m concerned, we can leave it as-is for the time being. The
mailing list will be migrated, and there will be a separate turn-down cycle
for that in a few years.
