I think git-debpush could check for this.
I think our error messages or documentation could maybe be improved,
since there seesm to have been some confusion. Looking at the
repository[1]], it seems the affected user:
* Was trying to use something like dgit-maint-merge(7)
* Had nevertheless added single-debian-patch to d/source/options
(which dgit-maint-merge(7) doesn't mention).
* Tried to use git-debpush --quilt=gbp with what was
(notionally, see below) a patches-applied git branch.
The user responded to the error about the wrong quilt mode by removing
the single-debian-patch annotation from d/source/options, rather than
by changing the quilt mode.
It's not clear whether they were intending to change the branch format
to patches-unapplied; the package currently has no patches.
Ian.
