Hi,

I need to avoid having to "git commit -m ..." every time I add/modify
code. I need to 'git buildpackage' without committing changes. The
reason is to make sure new code works before committing. This also
makes commits more meaningful.

So, in short, I need this:

1) edit / modify code
2) build package to test whether the new code additions/edits work as intended

Since I am using git, I think, I also must avoid using
'dpkg-buildpackage' but have to use 'git buildpackage' instead.

How can I 'git buildpackage' without committing code additions/edits
through 'git commit -m ..."?

Please note, that the last question does NOT mean I want to discard
the changes but I want to test the code additions/edits without
actually having to 'git commit -m ...'.
