Alternatively just copy over your just existing debian/ dir.

BTW, I personally stopped using dh_make at all but rather copy

   http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/package_template/

and adapt the files.  This is way better fitting our Debian Med team
policy and dh_make is disturbing packaging with very stupid boilerplates
you need to remove afterwards.  To make people better aware of this I
just changed our policy document and replaced the dh_make references to

   svn checkout svn://anonscm.debian.org/svn/debian-med/trunk/package_template debian

I hope everybody will like this.

Yes, that's it. :-)
