Bug Description

As recommended in the MIR request (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jigit/+bug/1978066), we should add a watch file, even if Debian has its own reason not to (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=697700).

The resulting package can be found here https://launchpad.net/~alexghiti/+archive/ubuntu/riscv/+sourcepub/13767687/+listing-archive-extra

I certainly appreciate the effort put into this patch, and the main inclusion request. Generally speaking, Ubuntu deltas are not appropriate if they only add a watch file. I would have sponsored this if the MIR was accepted by the security team. That being said, I'm not comfortable giving us more work in the long term, since this package will not be synced automatically.

I think Steve's comments are appropriate. If he's both upstream and the Debian maintainer, he's going to ensure the package follows the latest upstream release. If we fall behind for some reason, or it would be beneficial to include a patch in a stable release, I would consider that request separately.

Thanks for your time and effort on this. I sincerely hope this does not discourage you, and I wish you the best of luck.
