Warning, plug follows:
Depending what you are doing, you may prefer to get the sources using
dgit rather than by working with source packages. dgit gives you a
fast forwarding git branch, which you can use with dpkg-buildpackage
-b (for example).
dgit-user(7), and the other dgit manpages, may be useful. [1]
dgit is not formally available in backports (yet), but the dgit.deb
from unstable is directly installable and useable back to at least
stretch.

Ian.
