While you're at it, how do you make it easy? :)

I always build a .dsc using "gitpkg", and then build that in a clean
environment, usually with "pbuilder-dist", "pbuilder", or
"sbuild". (Alternatively, test it automatically with autopkgtest,
piuparts and lintian)

The "-v" flag for dpkg-buildpackage is a few abstraction layers away.
Figuring out to get it there is the challenge. :)
