Alright, that looks easier than I though, thanks for getting around this :)

A small detail though, I just noticed you also pushed upstream tags to your repo. Not
sure this is usefull, maybe we should only keep packaging related tags in the repo and
not tags from upstream remote. It'll keep the salsa repo more concise.

This is mentioned in the doc, last warning box of the page:
https://honk.sigxcpu.org/projects/git-buildpackage/manual-html/gbp.import.upstream-git.html

Great, I have no experience packaging libraries, thanks for your changes :)

I gave it a try, please review. I pushed only packaging relevant tags (as I mentioned
above) and renamed previous tags to fit gbp nomenclature (ie. ncmpc-0.17-1 → debian/1.17-1).

Here it is:
  https://salsa.debian.org/kaliko-guest/ncmpc-gbp-upstream
  git at salsa.debian.org:kaliko-guest/ncmpc-gbp-upstream.git

Cheers

PS: Working on ncmpc I noticed I forgot to add myself to d/copyright for MPD packaging.
We'll fix it for the next release.
