[Bug 510338] [NEW] bzr builddeb should warn about unadded files

[Scott Kitterman]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bzr-builddeb

In my continuing experimentation with UDD merging, I just spent far to
long discovering that bzr builddeb silently ignores files which are in
the package, but not added to bzr.

In my particular case, I had added a new patch and even though I could
push and pop the patch just fine, lintian (rightfully) complained it was
missing.

I think it is reasonable for a user to assume that what will be used to
build the package is what's in the local directory.  It's equally
reasonable for bzr builddep to only use what's in bzr.  Where these two
expectations diverge, some kind of warning is in order.
