tar 1.29b-2 breaks pristine-tar

Steps to reproduce:

docker run -ti ubuntu:18.04 /bin/bash

apt-get update
apt-get install git build-essential tar pristine-tar
git clone git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server-dev/ubuntu/+source/neutron
cd neutron/
for i in `git branch -a | grep remote | grep -v HEAD | grep -v master`; do git branch --track ${i#remotes/origin/} $i; done
# this command will fail
pristine-tar -v checkout neutron_10.0.7.orig.tar.gz
# to fix it update tar
apt-get install wget && wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tar/tar_1.30+dfsg-2_amd64.deb
apt-get install ./tar_1.30+dfsg-2_amd64.deb
# now it works
pristine-tar -v checkout neutron_10.0.7.orig.tar.gz
