after 0.2.7 debian/install now contains lots of unwanted files

[pravi]

Some or duplicates like readme and license. Some causes build failure like missing .gitignore.

Also reported here https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=867295 Though marked a wishlist there, but I think this is grave bug as it is a regression and causing build failure for almost all packages now because of missing .gitignore. You can reproduce this with cyclist.

dh_install: Cannot find (any matches for) ".npmignore" (tried in "." and "debian/tmp")
dh_install: node-cyclist missing files: .npmignore
dh_install: missing files, aborting
