Lintian tag: source-contains-git-control-dir

Type: pedantic

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The upstream source contains a .git directory. It was most likely included
by accident since git version control directories usually don't belong in
releases and may contain a complete copy of the repository. If an upstream
release tarball contains .git directories, you should usually report this
as a bug upstream.
