Source: isc-dhcp
Version: 4.4.1-2.3
According to https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/isc-dhcp
the Git repository of the package is on Salsa. However, looking
at the repository, it has been inactive for more than 2 years
and the latest patches are not part of it. See:
https://salsa.debian.org/dhcp-team/isc-dhcp/activity
Using `apt-get source` does provide the latest patches; using
a mixture of Salsa and package repository.
