Package: devscripts
Version: 2.20.5
Example package to reproduce this issue: node-rollup-plugin-node-resolve
This package is a monoropo and included multiple node modules in a
single git repo, but we only want to include a single directory in the
orig.tar.
I added the following lines to debian/copyright,
Files-Excluded: *
Files-Included: packages/node-resolve shared util
expecting only util and shared in the root directory to be included.
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/#files-field
say Thus, “Makefile.in” matches only the file at the root of the
tree, but “*/Makefile.in” matches at any depth.
But packages/babel/src/utils.js and many more were included.
