ah, that’s news to me and has been on my secret wish list for long (and wasn’t the case when I last looked)! That solves half of my issues with this. It’s not well documented in man uscan, which only tells me how to disable that feature. Do you (or anyone) know if it repacks the file consistently? I.e. will two developers, who both use uscan to get the original tarball for the same version and with the same File-Excluded get identical results?
