The other copies of it (in doc-debian and the doc directory of the
Debian apt archive) are all copied/built from the version on the
website.

https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/doc-debian/blob/master/doc-debian/debian/README.source
https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/doc-debian/blob/master/doc-debian/doc/social-contract.wml
https://deb.debian.org/debian/doc/
