Contact upstream and ask them to remove them from their VCS and source tarballs and put them into their binary tarballs/packages. If they refuse, then add Files-Excluded to debian/watch so you have a mechanism to automatically remove the files from tarballs downloaded using uscan. It is completely up to you how to structure any additional Debian VCS repository. Personally I'd import the tarball after uscan repacks it, since that is what will be uploaded to the archive. https://wiki.debian.org/UscanEnhancements -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
