OK, fine.

I checked policy and perhaps it is not the proper sequence when it is
suggested to do

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

This gives you a template for a changelog file where you just need to
adjust the package name (and you also need to adjust the source package
name in debian/control.

I think you just pushed master.  The policy document suggests to use

  git push --all --set-upstream
  git push --tags

This pushes all branches and tags which are created by `git import-orig`.

Next is to create the debian/ dir and I strongly recommend to use the
package template you can fetch as described above.  Please also verify
that

    uscan --verbose --report

at least reports your upstream versions to make sure the watch file is
functional.
 
The next step is to adapt d/control and may be d/rules (if needed) and
than try

    git-buildpackage

Feel free to ask for more detailed advise if policy is not clear about
the single steps.

Hope this helps

       Andreas.
