Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

The VCS field on developer Packages overview doesn't seem to consider a
debian/experimental branch.

In my example, the package scite, where unstable has version 4.4.5-2,
and salsa has the tag debian/4.4.5-2 on the debian/master branch, and
it has 5.0.0-1~exp1 in experimental, and the tag debian/5.0.0-1_exp1 on
the debian/experimental branch.

The Package overview shows Git - 4.4.5-2 (with the version in red as if
there's a problem with it) as if that is the latest in Git.

My package overview where the problem is visible at
https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=gusnan%40debian.org

I can see other packages that have experimental packaging in the
debian/master branch not showing this as a problem, or even those where
the experimental branch is called simply experimental (and not
debian/experimental) also not showing the version as problematic.

DEP-14 mentions debian/experimental and debian/unstable, but it
shouldn't be an error to use debian/experimental as branch name even if
using debian/master, right?

Please inform me if it is simply user error.
