Title:
  Provide commented-out method of using SFTP to upload to Ubuntu + PPAs

Status in dput package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dput

  This is the current default dput.cf:

  [ubuntu]
  fqdn			= upload.ubuntu.com
  method		= ftp
  incoming		= /
  login			= anonymous

  for sftp you need:

  [ubuntu]
  fqdn			= upload.ubuntu.com
  method		= sftp
  incoming		= ubuntu
  login			= (launchpad nick)

  The default dput.cf should make itself more amenable to the latter, as
  some of us require sftp uploads due to awful ISPs.  I suggest just
  adding the entire sftp section right below the ftp one, however have
  it commented out.  A similar example could be made for PPAs.  That way
  we won't need to search around the internet for how to enable sftp
  anymore.
