Package: git-core
Version: 1:1.5.5.1-1~bpo40+1
Severity: normal
git-daemon, by default, is configured to look for repositories in
/var/cache/git. My understanding of the FHS is that /var/cache is for
files that can be reproduced by the application; a source repository is
more likely to be the canonical source of the files, and should not be
deleted by housekeeping.

That's not how the BTS works. Please open a new bug.
But good catch, thanks!
