See policy s4.9 for 'patch' target and s4.14 for README.source
recommendation.
As it stands if you want an readable or editable patched source tree you
have to read debian/rules, which is full of impossible-to-follow
indirection.

Hi,
in the meantime the patch target has become optional and there are
better workflows to obtain a patched worktree.
On a related note, a simplified and more standardized d/rules files can
be found in <https://bugs.debian.org/1072520>.
