propose-update requires sources file in dist-git

When we use propose-update for a new package (e.g. requre in this case), the sources file is created only when we upload archive to the lookaside-cache => since we do that only once, it’s created only for the first branch and the command fails for the other ones.

The temporary solution is to use --force-new-sources option.

we could potentially check for presence of the sources file and run new-sources if it’s not present, WDYT?
