Thanks.

I looked at the code, and I'm not DEBSIGN_KEYID is quite right because
it would override the whole keyid.  dgit tries to find the using the
changelog maintainer.  Sean, what do you think?  (It would be a change
to behaviour for existing users who have set DEBSIGN_KEYID.)

There is an alternative approach: dgit honours various command line
and config settings for this.  There's a `-k` option, but I guess
that's not convenient for routine use.

But there's also the git config options

  dgit.default.keyid
  dgit-distro.DISTRO.keyid

So I think you could say

  git config --global dgit-distro.debian.keyid ....

Did you see those in the manual ?

Ian.
