If you are member of the alioth group collab-maint (feel free to join) - you also can just commit your changes. Please use common sense and standard practice for that (i.e. one logical change per commit, good commit messages). There is RFA bug #755797 - so feel free to join package maintenance or take over package maintenence. I'll try to help you as best, as I can. Regarding tests - probably, you can also test update.sh on live version with Jessie's version (update.sh has no changes, but I don't remember if databasebreak switch is working on that version). But in general - yes. You need some testing setup, e.g. in VM.
