I'm not sure that mr has branch management capabilities like this. I expect it's a case of digging down in the package/* one by one and checking out the wheezy branch (if one exists for that package). Hopefully you have an idea which subpackages you are interested in and can optimise this a bit rather than going through them all (which would be pretty tedious, possibly scriptable though). I expect quite a lot of them don't have a wheezy branch though, since no wheezy specific release was needed. I think running "apt-get source <udeb-name>" on a system with Wheezy configured in sources.list should get you the actual current source package. You might need to add a "deb-src $MIRROR wheezy main/debian-installer" line to sources.list though?
