It worked because the buildds (both in Debian and apt.pg.o) don't have
git installed in the chroots:

/usr/bin/make -j4
make[2]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
/usr/bin/perl utils/repo_revision.pl
Can't determine revision: no git executable found
Not updating existing rev file at f7a3648

In the CI build on salsa.debian.org, it did something else:

/usr/bin/perl utils/repo_revision.pl
Not updating existing rev file at debian/3.1.0_alpha1+dfsg-1_exp1-1-g9aab0ff6

I'll throw in that switch, thanks.
