[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#710073: sbuild: add copy-on-write support

Package: sbuild
Severity: wishlist

I would like to switch from pbuilder/cowbuilder to schroot/sbuild but
the lack of easy copy-on-write support in sbuild is blocking this. It
would be nice if sbuild supported that. It would be nice if sbuild
supported both of these mechanisms for copy-on-write:

      * overlayfs: this is planned to be merged into Linux 3.10
      * cowdancer: this is what cowbuilder uses

I would really like to see pbuilder/sbuild unified and this is one step
towards that long-term goal.
