I don't think it's devscripts' job to be a general "helpful packages"
metapackage.  We have enough dependencies (in the general sense) just in
support of the scripts we provide.

So adding a dependency for topgit falls in the same category, I am
afraid.

Nonetheless, if you feel that it is still worth to add the suggests for topgit, 
you should open an upstream report and discuss your need with the developers.  
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs for more information on opening Debian 
upstream reports.
If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the 
link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in 
advance.
