In this case, I would do:

- debian-squeeze
- debian-wheezy
- debian-sid
- debian-experimental
- upstream-squeeze
- upstream-wheezy
- upstream-sid
- upstream-experimental

That's what I do with all of my packaging through Git, what is done in
the pkg-php team, and in many other teams.

If you need to switch the default branch, it's non trivial to do, but
it's not hard (though I can't remember what Git commands was involved),
so you can later kill the master branch forever.
