source uploads are no problem (but binNMUs are)

for i in $list_of_src_pkgs ; do
	mkdir t ; cd t
	apt source $i
	cd $i-*
	dch --some-params
	debuild -S
	cd ..
	debsign *changes
	dput *changes
	cd ..
done

this is not rocket science. I have done that with 10% of the
archive, that is >3000 sources packages and uploads.

I also believe dgit makes this even easier, but I have not tried that yet.

I guess I'd welcome the need of having to do 23 of such uploads so that
someone shows how to do this with dgit and this boring argument becomes mood.

I also think we *still* need a better way to do binNMUs for all archs because
binNMUs have other problems, see #894441 and friends.

"I know what you're thinking" used to be an idiom but now it's a business model.
