Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.4.37
Severity: wishlist

Hello.  I would like to request that git-buildpackage include the ability to 
specify a separate command if you only want to build the source of the package. 
 Since I prefer to use pdebuild with cowdancer to build my packages, calling 
git-buildpackage -S currently creates the pbuilder environment, installs all 
the build-deps, and then just exports the completed source package.  Unless I'm 
missing an obvious pdebuild flag, it would be far simpler to allow the user to 
specify two build commands: one for the building of the package, and one for 
building of just the source.  For example, bzr-builddeb currently implements 
this functionality.

Thanks,
Daniel Moerner
