Package: devscripts
Version: 2.18.9
Severity: normal

When using uscan's git mode on a repository that has tags, uscan does
not take into account the last tag when constructing the version number.

For example, if a repository has a v0.3.0 tag and commits were done
after the tag, the last commit being done on 2018-10-25 and having the
hash f80706d, the version should be:
 - 0.3.0~git20181025.f80706d

However, uscan currently reports the following version:
 - 0.0~git20181025.f80706d

My watch file is like so:
```
version=4
opts=mode=git, \
https://github.com/collectd/go-collectd.git \
HEAD
```

The specs for the git mode were originally discussed in #811565. It
might be that this part of the spec was simply not implemented yet, so
feel free to change the severity to wishlist.

Cheers,
