True, but upstream tarball ships .gitignore, and i'd rather not patch
upstream .gitignore =/
I personally have a global ignore setup on my machine to ignore .pc,
or e.g. you can use local per-repository ignore.
So i'm not taking this for now.

The code from RFC 6234 is under Simplified BSD License see sha.h. How
is this non-free / what am I missing that you have spotted?

But not yet Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. So 16.04 LTS was still with btrfs-tools,
thus ideally I would want to drop this transitional package in May
2018, after 18.04 LTS has been released. Is that ok?

Ack, with dropping btrfs-tools-dbg transitional package, because nobody cares =)

Instead of this, I simply used $ gbp dch to generate the changelog
entries from the git commit messages and thus matches what has been
applied. They are not as pretty, but I hope that is ok.
