Your use of git looks fine.

You probably just need to use either -a or -u option to debcheckout.

Easiest is probably to start over with a fresh debcheckout.

Alternatively you can try edit the .git/config file directly, changing 
the git:// line to an authorized git URL (either 
git+ssh://git.debian.org/... or git.debian.org:/...).  Just beware that 
the git+ssh variant has no colon after hostname while the other does - 
that difference has caused me many hours of frustration.

...or you can of course leae it be, and we'll inject your change using 
git-import-dsc later :-)

Ah, well.  See you some other time, then :-)
