By popular demand have I just pushed some changes adding documentation
of the tools used for Debian GIS packaging.

Have a look a the change itself:

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-grass/website.git;a=commitdiff;h=2887b4c30ce0e0b6532bbc220a7fa2c409f4ee18

And the update HTML version:

http://linuxminded.nl/tmp/pkg-grass-website/policy.html

As mentioned in the commit message, the Packaging with Git section is
work in progress, and the Git tips will be further adapted into the
Packaging walkthrough.

The pbuilder specific documentation will also likely be moved from the
Tools list to its own section.

The expanded Table of Contents allows easy access to subsections of
interest.

Kind Regards,

Bas
