For XCP (Xen Cloud Platform) that I'm helping to package (the first
version is nearly finished), upstream doesn't releases tarballs, but
instead, just adds tags to its Git repository, and git-buildpackage does
the rest of the magic (eg: selecting the correct tag on the master
branch to build the orig.tar.gz).
Is there currently a way, or is it planned, or is it even possible, that
watch files are used to check git tags?
Cheers,
Thomas

Since your title said "github tags," I think you're looking for:
http://githubredir.debian.net/
The source code is there if you're not on github.
Cheers,

There is no need to use githubredir, just do something like this:

Hi Scott, thanks for your quick answer. I'm now cross-posting in -mentors.
In my case, upstream tagged "master/1.3", and I'm getting issues still,
with uscan.
zigo@node4407:~/sources/xen-api/xen-api$ uscan --verbose --report
-- Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
http://githubredir.debian.net/github/jonludlam/xen-api (.*).tar.gz
-- Found the following matching hrefs:
/github/jonludlam/xen-api/0~master.tar.gz
/github/jonludlam/xen-api/master/1.3.tar.gz
dpkg: warning: version '/master/1.3' has bad syntax: version number does
not start with digit
Newest version on remote site is /master/1.3, local version is 1.3
dpkg: warning: version '/master/1.3' has bad syntax: version number does
not start with digit
=> Newer version available from
http://githubredir.debian.net/github/jonludlam/xen-api/master/1.3.tar.gz
-- Scan finished
FYI, I really am packaging version 1.3, so uscan should find out that I'm
up-to-date.
I tried to poke with opts="uversionmangle=s/^master///" to remove "master/"
from the version of upstream git repo, but no luck... Upstream is
friendly, so
I can ask to remove the annoying bits of the versions, but there's already 9
packages involved, so I'd be glad to find a solution keeping upstream
scheme,
that would be less work and forcing "git push/pull --force --tags" to
everyone
working on the project is annoying.
Cheers,
Thomas Goirand (zigo)

I assume the "tags as .tar.gz" feature is something special from
github. Or could I use also tags from e.g. git.debian.de in a watchfile?

you are absolutely right, I meant git.debian.org
Sorry for the misconception.

As far as I can see git.debian.org offers only http[s] access via gitweb
so we don't have it there per default.
But I found a snapshot feature in gitweb.conf (5)
http://www.manpagez.com/man/5/gitweb.conf/
Looks like this could do the trick.
