I've raised some of our concerns in managing patches with git on the vcs-pkg mailing list [1][2]. Even though it is early, I've already received some interesting feedback. In particular, Russ Albery pointed me to his guidelines on workflow / branch layout for managing Debian packages with git, they are available at [3]. I found them very interesting, I recommend reading them, maybe we can draft our best practices on branch layout along that lines ... Cheers.
