Sound like a good idea! Gbp currently ships a helper script in examples/
which could go then, however this script has some things that
git-pbuilder currently lacks:

     * update|create|login options to log into the chroot
     * it takes the dist (sid, squeeze, ...) from the script name

I wonder if we should merge those first? Russ, would you be o.k. with
keeping git-pbuilder up to date in git-buildpackage? We could work with
a submodule but this looks like overkill for a single skript.
Cheers,
 -- Guido
