It would be great if we could run the salsa-ci pipeline localy easily, in chroot via sbuild or whatever.
Do not get me wrong I like the fact that we have these pipelines in salsa, it is a great plus for Debian.
I Just see that the salsa-ci pipelines does not gives somethimes exacly the same result than my current sbuild + autopkgtest run locally.
So I need to iterate also on salsa-ci to fix my autopkgtests.
It would be great if the "quality-pipeline" could be decouple from salsa and could be run locally / salsa / what ever other infra.
We have plenty of quality tools, but it is not easy to run them all in a row during the package preparation.

most of my packages are team maintain and I agreed that this central git repository is valuable when it comes to team works.
