[Pkg-javascript-devel] packages without corresponding github tag

Hi,

as you might have noticed I uploaded some packages, that are dependencies 
mentioned on the tasks pages.

Now I found some packages that have a version in package.json, which does 
not have a corresponding tag on github. What is the best way to handle 
such packages?
Ask upstream to create the needed tag? How do we notice new  versions 
when upstream forgets new tags afterwards?
Create a get-orig-source-target in debian/rules to download the current 
revision of the repository? How do we detect new versions in this case?
