I've got a strange error message in 'git push':
,----
| % git push
| Counting objects: 47, done.
| Delta compression using up to 2 threads.
| Compressing objects: 100% (24/24), done.
| Writing objects: 100% (24/24), 4.37 KiB, done.

Indeed debian/changelog is not in the working tree, it is not in the
current branch (upstream) at all, although it exists in the master
branch. Default is to push the current branch:
,----
| % git config --get push.default
| current
| % git --version
| git version 1.6.6
`----
Despite the error message, the push was apparently successful; the
repository I push to can be found at
http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/ncurses.git.

I think there is nothing "fatal" in your git setup, other than that the
repository at the remote end you are pushing into has a broken hook script
(perhaps update, post-receive, or post-update) that is issuing the error
message. I would raise the issue with the owner of the repository if I
were you.

Thanks, that hits the nail on the head.

I've opened a support ticket.
