You could decide that the canonical form that you want in git is the output of "dpkg-source --skip-patches -x". The vast majority of current git repositories are working that way. debian/patches/ contains patches that are not applied in the git repository. It would avoid most of the problems you're having but it would feel less "gitish" because you don't get to see the changes made by debian in "git blame" and "git log" on the modified files.
