I reviewed debbugs 'git log'. There are work around May done by you and Otto to make the GIT repository in a state suitable to an upload to unstable, which is a very good news. Unfortunately, this effort was not concluded by an upload, so the long standing RC bug was not fixed in unstable. So I will do a minimal NMU of debbugs soon to fix the RC bug so that it can enter testing again. This will give you a little more time to decide how you want to proceed.
