?

as "Why pointing to salsa?"


Options  2. and 3. are both OK.  Document the location with `Vcs-Browser:`
and `Vcs-...:` in debian/control.


Not using option 1., "debian folder in main branch", allows Upstream
to support several Debian devirates.

Does prefer option 2.
DEP-14, https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep14/ , has
in its design support for several vendors.
