Feature request idea: check that all released versions (from snapshot.d.o) are mentioned in debian/changelog

What do you think? Is there any conceivable situation where you don't want to have a complete changelog with all previously uploaded versions described in d/changelog?

While this check may appear rather OCDish, this came from a tag2upload failure: I had ran git-debpush to prepare an upload that had passed all QA tests from Salsa. However the t2u service discovered that the version in the archive was not the previous d/changelog entry. I had missed to incorporate a NMU upload into my packaging, and just uploaded a new version ignoring (and effectively reverting) the NMU changes.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
