That seems likely.

It seems like you are trying to base your work on upstream tarballs.
In that case, to work with dgit, your git objects must contain
precisely the same as the tarball - in this case, with crlf line endings.

I looked at doc/make.bat and the version in the git tree seems to have
nl line endings, even though the version in the Debian archive has
crlf line endings.

I conjecture that this tune

> gbp import-orig --uscan

failed to defuse the gitattributes before doing the tarball import.
