Files to copy into the header package from the scripts/ directory are
listed by a call to find which also includes .gitignore files. These
don't belong in the package, and lintian also complains with a

Filter the .gitignore files so they're not copied into the resulting
package.

Could you add log messages based on linux-headers-6.12.0-rc6 instead?
Then, the line length will become shorter.

For consistency, please move the new pattern before -a \( -type f -o -type l \)
