Package: dpkg
Version: 1.17.27
Severity: normal
Dear dpkg maintainers,
In this commit:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dpkg/dpkg.git/commit/?id=d92794f4a8db43959b06d4191860dcc27e5ddcbf
dpkg-source ignore changes to .gitreview files before building. This is
a very good feature, which is mandatory in order to build in a Jessie
environment (even when using a Sid sbuild chroot).
In multiple cases, it is a good idea to have the build host to use Jessie
even if the chroot is Sid. Therefore, it is important to have this
feature of ignoring .gitreview.
It'd be awesome if you agreed to add this feature to Jessie. I can also
discuss the mater with the release team. If you do agree, then I will
reassign this bug to the release team.
Cheers,
Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Mandatory by whom? If you need to build on jessie, then you should add
any such ignore patterns to the source package, until you can rely on
dpkg-source doing it for you, like this:
,--- debian/source/options ---
extend-diff-ignore=.gitreview

While this is a tiny change, this is still a new feature request, that
changes the behavior in stable. I'm thus not planning on backporting
this. Closing now.
Thanks,
