Thanks for the feedback!  I should probably have synced with you *before*
but assumed you wouldn't find the renaming controversial :-)

Great!  There was some trial and error on my side and I wasn't entirely
sure it was a self-contained list of commands.

One more thing, `git checkout master` is unfortunately quite ingrained
in my muscle memory (didn't get used to `git switch -` yet); depending
on your workflow you might also find useful to create an alias (or
symbolic reference in git parlance) refs/heads/master pointing to
refs/heads/debian/latest:

    $ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/{master,debian/latest}

`git push origin master` would create a new branch on the remote, but I
find it handy to switch between branches on the local clone, at least
until I get use to the new name and/or to `git switch -` :-)

cheers
