Thank you Sean for filing these bugs! :*

This would have been `pbuilder`, not `pdebuild` (pdebuild is to
automatically build out of an unpacked source tree, it builds the .dsc
and pass it to pbuilder).
Also, you could use a path instead of cd'ing into the directory of
course, just my hands change directory :)

To me, it appears the -sa thing is done at push time, as it worked for
me:
% dgit -C ~/pbuilder/result/sid/amd64/ocrmypdf_4.3.2-2_amd64.changes push
[...]
edited .changes for archive .orig contents: added ocrmypdf_4.3.2.orig.tar.xz
[...]
dgit ok: pushed and uploaded 4.3.2-2
Just the -v it isn't, I had to pass manually to pbuilder (and fail at
that as I can never remember what I'm supposed to pass to -v...)

With my pbuilder maintainer hat on, I'm happy to provide all the help
you need, included (if you see the need) changes on pbuilder's side :)
DISCLAIMER: I'm not (yet) a dgit user, but always be a fun of the
concept, and it reached a point where I don't need to throw away my
workflow, and I'm happy of the experience I had while sponsoring Sean's
package. I'll probably start to use it more soon ^^
