If the automation actually made things easier, I'd be in favor of it. I used
to manually tag uploads in svn for DPMT/PAPT because I didn't trust svn-
buildpackage. Then I learned it a bit better and started using it because it
was easier. Then I learned debcommit -r -R and it was even easier.
I'm all for easy. I have yet to see a full source (regardless of VCS) or git
workflow that I didn't find more complex and harder to remember/do correctly
than what we have now. I really don't care about what the new hotness is. It
actually needs to be better and not just cooler. For me, a lot of better is
simpler.
