The "Create source.change including FULL Source code using debuild"
section should probably not recommend the use of debuild, you should
always use the appropriate chroot for the distribution being uploaded to.

You can pass the debuild options to pbuilder with the git-buildpackage
--git-pbuilder-options argument:

 gbp buildpackage --git-pbuilder --git-dist=<dist> \
                  --git-pbuilder-options="--debbuildopts='-S -sa'"

You should configure the appropriate GPG key in ~/.devscripts to have
the various tools use it automatically:

 # GPG keyid to use (-k option)
 DEBSIGN_KEYID=<KEYID>

Kind Regards,

Bas
