Package: devscripts
Version: 2.21.3
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: deb...@microjoe.org
Dear Maintainer,
While trying to use uscan to scan for upstream commits on a specific
branch instead of the default on, I tried to use refs/heads/<branch> as
explained in the uscan man page.
Here is the content of the d/watch file I am using:
version=4
opts="mode=git, gitmode=full, pgpmode=none, pretty=8.994+git%cd.%h, repack,
compression=xz" \
https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam.git \
refs/heads/Beta
However when running uscan, the invocation fails with the following
message:
uscan info: uscan (version 2.21.3) See uscan(1) for help
uscan info: Scan watch files in .
uscan info: Check debian/watch and debian/changelog in .
uscan info: package="flatcam" version="8.994+ds-1" (as seen in

uscan info: Scan finished
The scan fails because *tag pattern* is not found. But I am not looking
for tags but for the last commit of a branch (refs/heads/*).
Quoting the man page:
If matching-pattern is set to refs/heads/branch, uscan
downloads source from the named branch of the git repository.
Expected behavior would be uscan to download the latest commit of the
branch, without any pattern required to be matched.
Thanks.
