Source: lintian Version: 2.5.65 I changed webkit2gtk's Vcs-Git field from Vcs-Git: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-webkit/webkit.git
to Vcs-Git: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-webkit/webkit.git -b wk2/unstable in order to satisfy https://qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/vcswatch?package=webkit2gtk which complained that it couldn't find the current debian/changelog in HEAD. (Maybe it's time to change HEAD, but this bug is also a problem for experimental and Stable Update branches.) Now, I think (lintian's website is recovering from a typo) that this now causes lintian to emit vcs-field-has-unexpected-spaces I think the " -b BRANCHNAME" suffix should be considered valid syntax for Vcs-Git. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
