Conveniently, we already decided to switch:

It was annoying me that these instructions were missing the last steps on how to switch the default branch to debian/master and delete the old branch.
 
These steps are very important to:
 
(a) prevent confusion on which branch to use.
(b) prevent confusion on qa.debian.org, which uses the default branch to check that the git version.

ssh git.debian.org
cd "/git/python-modules/packages/$1.git"
git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/debian/master

cd "$TMP"
git push origin :master

I also have a script to automate the entire conversion, and assuming the git repository is up-to-date and nobody is withholding pushes, it seems to work well.
