Quick note: this is essentially what debian does. If you want to go this way, I hope we can avoid the need to generate a "pristine" tarball and patches. Instead, the contents of the repo should be directly used for a build. A tarball can be created, but this tarball would always be the tip of the tree containing both the sources and the packaging.
