This is a good advice for the future, but default.nanorc did not exist in Jessie's nano package, so there was nothing to divert before the upgrade. The OP was unlucky to choose a file name which will was used in the next version.
It would not have been better to have been given a warning. Any admin who alters a system file should know what he is doing and be able to deal with it.
The OP did dot alter a system file, the file did not exist in Jessie's package.
