That works, and gbp does it for me.

I suppose this ought to be a documented limit of the "--upstream=v1.2.3"
workflow style, which I guess this bug report now serve as.

There are two other limits of that style that I've ran into:

1) Packages that repack upstream orig.tar using, e.g., Files-Excluded.

2) Packages whose upstream uses .gitattributes export-subst to modify
source in git compared to release tarballs.

So maybe this workflow is flawed after all, although I do like having
upstream SHA1 git commit ids recorded in the debian tag2upload tag.
