Looks like it's enough to
$ git clone git://gitorious.org/python-markdown/mainline.git
$ cd mainline
$ svn co
svn://svn.debian.org/python-modules/packages/python-markdown/trunk/debian
Bump the version (debian/changelog diff) and tweak the rules file:

and the resulting package builds and is useful. This isn't enough, of
course:
* debian/watch is wrong, they're not using sourceforge anymore
* "pyversions: missing XS-Python-Version in control file, fall back
to debian/pyversions"
* I don't know if the changelog choice above is *right*
* "dh_python: Doing nothing since dh_pycompat exists; dh_pysupport
or dh_pycentral should do the work. You can remove dh_python from
your rules file." (except that with cdbs, it's not *in* the
rules file...)
* "warning, `debian/python-markdown/DEBIAN/control' contains
user-defined field `Python-Version'"
(Not volunteering to co-maintain, I'm not responsive enough on my
*own* packages, but I'm now using it enough to chip in from time to
time :-)
