Package: devscripts Version: 2.18.3 Severity: normal uscan(1) man pages under "github.com" says:
Note that the "tags" downloads do not include Git submodules in the .tar.gz
whilst the "releases" do.
This is incorrect, not true and has never been the case.
Releases allow to upload hand-crafted files and some projects create custom
tarballs with all included submodules.
Github.com do not include submodules into tarballs at all, neither from
"tags" nor from "releases". All github-generated traballs have no submodules.

Lying is, almost by definition, a refusal to cooperate with others. It
condenses a lack of trust and trustworthiness into a single act. It is both
a failure of understanding and an unwillingness to be understood. To lie is
to recoil from relationship.
