Note that you can set branch names to be used
e.g.
git config branch.ntyni/wheezy.dpmUpstreamBranch ntyni/upstream-wheezy
git config branch.ntyni/wheezy.dpmPatchedBranch ntyni/patched-wheezy
will change the related branches for ntyni/wheezy. (this of course needs
to be set for every debian branch).
I'll consider if there is a nice way to add a general config for this
(though I'm not sure if that is feasible).
