I recently saw a couple of bugreports all complaining about debian/watch files failing with GoogleCode. Since I'm myself maintaining some packages whose upstream authors use Google as their hoster, I felt it was a good idea to offer a service for uscan(1) and DEHS.
You can reach the service at http://googlecode.debian.net.
To use it in your debian/watch, just use:
http://googlecode.debian.net/p/<project>/<regex>
For example:
http://googlecode.debian.net/p/pyproj/pyproj-(\d+.*).tar.gz
The source code is available at debian-it.it
(you should give this url to
git clone). This service is currently in beta testing; suggestions and patches
are more than welcome! Also, feel free to report any issue you might encounter!
