Using git is good. The root of the problem here was that another DD had
tagged commit https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-
team/mariadb-10.1/commit/d6c1b1f9cac58d988882c3a0494c501e40d905b5 as
https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-
team/mariadb-10.1/commits/debian/10.1.25-1 falsely.

In reality, the tag debian/10.1.25-1 should have been on commit
https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-
team/mariadb-10.1/commit/8927cd141a3c7bbfb918d3c8f8e0e6ee6acef178

This lead me to work on the wrong revision, as I trusted the tag to not
be false (never before has it been wrong). Thus the resulting thing lost
the commits d6c1b1f..8927cd. The long term solution would be to code
into tracker.debian.org or some similar a tool that automaticaly checks
the git tags and alerts if the source uploaded to Debian does not match
and the tag is wrongly placed.
