Of course there is one.

  --svn-override a=b Override some config variable (comma separated list)

Set this in ~/.svn-buildpackage.conf and it should work, eg.
svn-override origDir=~/DEB

Unfortunately the shell variable substitution does not work in this
config file.

he better alternative I imagine is a shell alias, something like:

alias svn-b="svn-buildpackage --svn-override origDir=~/DEB/$(head -n1 
debian/control | cut -f2 -d' ')

The better question is - where do you expect to see this documented?

Regards,
Eduard.

OpenBSD fails miserably in this respect, and makes for an example of how NOT
to work with the community on security issues.  Their approach is, roughly,
"we fixed this a while ago but didn't tell anyone, so you're vulnerable and
we're not, ha-ha-ha".
