Dear Go team,

I am looking for a sponsor for the package "<PACKAGE_NAME>".
This package is a prerequisite for upcoming package "lazygit" (#908894).

I pushed to our team's Salsa:

  https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/<PACKAGE_NAME>

Could you please reviewing/sponsoring this?
Any kind of reviews and suggestions are appreciated.

And here is a nice script to generate RFS email easily:

#!/bin/bash

# requirements for this script to work properly:
# - be in directory with debianized source
# - it must be the first release of package
# - it must close an ITP bug
# - DEBFULLNAME and DEBEMAIL must be exported

package="$(dpkg-parsechangelog -S Source)"
version="$(dpkg-parsechangelog -S Version)"
itp="$(dpkg-parsechangelog -S Closes)"
