I wrote a patch (attached to this email) but I am
still thinking if this is worth the complicated scripting...

Another approach would be to stop caring untracked files.

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: make package builds more robust

Running 'make deb-pkg' in a dirty repository (that is, 'git diff'
outputs something) has some problems.

[1] If a file path contains whitespaces, 'make deb-pkg' fails with
an error message like follows:

  diff: ./scripts/package/../../"a b": No such file or directory
    [snip]
  dpkg-source: error: expected ^@@ at line 2 of diff ...

'git status --porcelain' double-quotes a file path that contains
whitespaces. Remove the surrounding double-quotes, and add TAB to the
'+++' line to make it a valid patch. This is the same as what GIT does.

See GIT commit 1a9eb3b9d503 ("git-diff/git-apply: make diff output a
bit friendlier to GNU patch (part 2)") for reference.

I gave up other special characters such as TAB, new line. It would be
possible to create a patch that GNU patch accepts by quoting the file
paths (and 'git diff' does this), but dpkg-source fails anyway.

[2] The executable bit is lost.

[3] Symbolic links are not handled.

Rewrite the code to make it work more correctly.
