The --before-build-command option specifies commands to be executed at
the beginning of the ‘dpkg-source --before-build’ run. This option
can be used with any source format and is expected to be mostly used
from debian/source/local-options for such tasks as generating a
changelog from the revision control log.
Do not add a corresponding --after-build-command option; that can
always be added later if it turns out to be useful.

Hi Raphaël,
As a bit of a purist and a lazy person, I don’t like keeping generated
files in version control. When upstream does not ship a changelog,
the solution is to write a debian/autogen.sh that automatically
generates a commit log and puts it in the debian/ directory, and ask
people to run it before each build.
When the debian/source/local-options feature appeared, at the back of
my mind I thought, “Could this be used to automatically run
debian/autogen.sh?” It looks like it could.
This patch might also be useful for those misguided souls that require
autoreconf to be run on developer machines instead of buildds. :)
What do you think?
Jonathan
