Not quite true. Git repository format is currently set to 0.
$ head .git/config
[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0

$ builtin-init-db.c:repository_format_version != GIT_REPO_VERSION
$ setup.c: inspect check_repository_format* functions.

might be quite unlikely, but possible, so I find Raphael suggestion of adding 
git repo format version to *.dsc absolutely reasonable and wise.
