As was already stated: pbuilder login --save-after-login.
However, ideally you should be able to throw away and re-create your
pbuilder environment at any time, rather than relying on manual
customisation. So your customisations should be done in a "G" hook
script.
Also, for the specific instance of adding another APT source, you can
use the --othermirror option to pbuilder create.
