Because the way the code is structured, commitlines does take into
account the `debian/' dir, because commitlines is called just after
commitstat for Git, so the problem is not there as far as I am aware and
what I found when I had debugged this (long time back).

But I will try to debug this again, based on what you have just said.

Yes, that's right. So if I do fix it, we can show this or else we can
just do away with it.
