I can confirm that I now was able to clone a non-empty repository -
fine.

Please check Debian Med policy for the keyword pristine-tar. The
drivers of the Git adoption in the Debian Med team decided to import the
full upstream source into the repository. While git-buildpackage also
allows a different repository layout (without injecting upstream source
via pristine-tar) people here do consider this as a good idea. (I
*personally* consider this as a useless waste of disk space but well, we
need some common rules and I can deal with this somehow.)

Yep, that's very easy to solve and is actually an advantage of using a
clean chroot as build environment. I bet the build would work with a
plain `debuild` (without the p in the beginning) and you would not learn
the essential lection about the Build-Depends field in debian/control.
If you want to know what Build-Depends might be needed it is a very good
idea to consult apt-file. The error message above claims that the file
Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/python2.pm is missing and so you try
$ apt-file search Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/python2.pm
python:
//var/cache/apt/apt-file/http.debian.net_debian_dists_testing_main_Contents-amd64.gz:usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/python2.pm
python:
//var/cache/apt/apt-file/http.debian.net_debian_dists_unstable_main_Contents-amd64.gz:usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/python2.pm
Which in turn means adding the line
Build-Depends: python
will fix the problem above. Alternatively you might have a look into
packages using python2 and these will all feature this line.
Hope this helps to solve your problem and feel free to keep on asking.
Kind regards
Andreas.
