yes.

no, that means I have to maintain the artifact (namely the
.orig.tar.gz).
The archive software (both reprepro and dak were I to use that) require
that the .orig.tar.gz not change checksums.

I don't want my build machines to be able to push back to my master
repository.
Nor do I want to have to release upstream versions if I lose state on my
build machines.
So this violates my requirements because I have to maintain  an artifact
of dpkg-source (the .orig.tar.gz) and makesure its checksum never
changes.

Also, using git-buildpackage is difficult.
The build is done by sbuild, which does not call git-buildpackage.
