MMMMMhhhh, I'm not sure I like this.

During package preparation, it is customary to do many builds for
testing and then *the* final build to upload. I usually do the many
builds staying in master (with debian/patches/ generated, though never
committed to master), and then I do the final build staying in build.

With that change you just committed I'll be forced to use
--git-debian-branch manually on the command line during the many
builds. Which is quite annoying.

I think Stephane (back then the only other topgit user among us, in
this list) used a work-flow similar to mine.

Please revert this change, unless you have strong arguments to have it
that way.

Cheers.
