Alright, that explains it then. > If you would prefer any subsequent uploads of d-i-related components > to always exclude the .gitignore, I'll try to remember that for the > future. Until 3.0 (git) was used everywhere, it was very customary to have some differences in successive uploads, depending on who was uploading, and whether -i/-I was used; it's not a huge deal, and only means a little noise when reviewing diffs. Whatever is fine with SRMs is fine with me. (It just happened to surprise me a little when I compared a local source build with what was uploaded and is available on coccia, since I built from my local repo as usual instead of thinking about downloading your source packages from the get-go.)
