I've done the manual comparison between the files on power and the git repo
and found small inconsistencies in classtest.php and
members_group_status.php.

Besides those differences, it doesn't look like deploying a .deb package
built from the current repo would break anything. That being said, I'm
quite novice at Debian packaging and don't feel comfortable with breaking
this on my own at this stage.

The good news is it looks like things could be cleaned up in an hour or
less.

I'll see if there is any other interest to do this tomorrow, otherwise it
will just become another one of the things "we should do some day".
