I found this in the Debian Science Policy[1]:
""
The next step only applies if you do not use the "master" branch for storing you
debian work. In this case, the HEAD reference in the repository has to be set to
point to the branch you are going to push to the repository, or cloning will
fail. Assuming your Debian-specific changes are stored in a branch called
"debian", do:
$ echo 'ref: refs/heads/debian' > HEAD
