I don't think Fabian really disagreed with using branches for
changes. Actually, I do not at all and use local branches rather often.

I think the more important concern here is does every tiny change need
to be published on git.debian.org? I'd say not. Creating a branch there
creates manual work (and coordination!) for creation and deletion.
Especially for smaller tasks like updating the debian/copyright file a
local branch and publishing patches with 'git-format-patch(1)' would
have appeared more appropriate to me.
