Hi Timo,

Maybe the request below got lost among all other emails, but (if you
agree) could you do this:

1) Visit https://salsa.debian.org/sssd-team/uid-wrapper and go to
Settings->Repository->Protected branches and allow force-push for master

2) Run the following, in your clone of the uid-wrapper repository:

jas at kaka:~/dpkg/uid-wrapper$ git checkout new-master
jas at kaka:~/dpkg/uid-wrapper$ git branch -d master
jas at kaka:~/dpkg/uid-wrapper$ git checkout -b master
jas at kaka:~/dpkg/uid-wrapper$ git push origin master -f

3) Disable force-push for master again.

This will drop my bad tarball import of upstream from the master branch.
I've been uploading releases from 'new-master' for a while now, and
'master' is abandonded.
