Done. An alternative approach more reminiscent of duck typing (try
it and handle failure, instead of first checking whether to do it)
would be:

  if callable(tg):
    save_backup(.git/config)
    if tg remote --populate origin:
      if git show-ref | egrep -q '^[[:xdigit:]]+[[:space:]]+refs/top-bases/.+$':
        party!

    restore_backup(.git/config)

Maybe Petr (debbugs-cc'd) has some (more) input on this?

 .
   [ Adam D. Barratt ]
   * bts:
     + Update the manpage to mention local caching in the description
       section and correct a typo. (Closes: #499397)
     + Accept a command consisting purely of a comment. (Closes: #501252)
   * cowpoke:
     + Update to new upstream version
       - Multiple architecture and distribution support.
       - Options are now specified using --option rather than being listed
         after the .dsc file.
       - There is now a --create option to allow new build roots to be
         easily created.
       - There are two new configuration file options BUILDD_DIST (the
         default distribution for which packages will be built) and
         DEBOOTSTRAP, allowing one to specify which of {c,}debootstrap
         should be used.
       - The RESULT_DIR configuration variable has been replaced by
         PBUILDER_BASE which points to pbuilder's base folder under which
         architecture and distribution directories will be created.
       - cowpoke.conf now supports per-arch and per-distribution options.
   * debchange:
     + Don't attempt to automatically determine if the current changelog is
       an NMU if an alternative changelog location was specified using the
       CHANGELOG environment variable.
     + Update the Ubuntu distribution list. Add jaunty and remove the
       no-longer supported warty, hoary, edgy and fiesty. Also add
       "-backports" as a supported "extension".
     + Modify the message produced by --closes to make it clearer that it
       is intended to be edited to add details of the bug and fix as
       appropriate. (Closes: #495743)
   * debcommit:
     + Allow --release to be combined with --edit or --confirm. Based on
       a patch by Eric Gerlach. (Closes: #497988)
     + Allow a newly initialised (i.e. containing no HEAD) git tree to be
       committed to. Based on a patch by Eric Gerlach. (Closes: #497995)
   * debdiff: Correctly handle hyphenated distribution names when generating
     a diff against the previous version of the package. (Closes: #503950)
   * getbuildlog:
     + Apply some patches from Jörg Sommer (Closes: #496065)
       - Unescape %7Es in log URLs to allow explicitly searching for
         package versions containing tildes.
       - Simplify a couple of variable assignments and use shell string
         operations to extract the version and architecture from the logs.
     + Allow the logs for the build with the largest version number to be
       easily retrieved. Based on a patch by Jörg Sommer.
   * licensecheck: Match a couple more variants on the wording of a
     3-clause BSD license. (Closes: #503378)
   * nmudiff: Require an explicit confirmation as to whether the generated
     mail should be sent, rather than defauling to not sending it.
     (Closes: #483657)
   * tagpending: Don't output a spurious empty line near the end of the
     changelog comments under some circumstances.
   * uscan:
     + Document the USCAN_TIMEOUT configuration file variable.
       (Closes: #502517)
     + Add a USCAN_REPACK configuration file variable indicating that bzip
       tar or zip archives should always be repacked to gzip tar archives.
       (Closes: #502516)
 .
   [ Christoph Berg ]
   * debian/control: Remove the Dm-Upload-Allowed flag.
 .
   [ Stefano Zacchiroli ]
   * debcheckout:
     + try to guess repository type when given raw URLs
     + update user info about Vcs-* fields (correct developers' reference
       section, add an URL to it)
     + suggest using apt-get source as a fallback (Closes: #488717)
     + add support to define custom rules for authenticated mode, this way
       personal repos can benefit from '-a' (Closes: #501568)
     + add -d/--details option to print extended information about
       reopsitories, in machine parseable format. Implement dumping of
       TopGit-specific information for TopGit-enabled GIT repositories
     + initialize TopGit's automatically, for GIT repositories which are
       recognized as being managed with TopGit (Closes: #499264)
     + add --git-track option to require tracking of remote branches when
       checking out GIT repositories (Closes: #499050)
 .
   [ Patrick Schoenfeld ]
   * debsign: Unset GREP_OPTIONS to avoid problems when this variable is set
     in the users environment. (Closes: #504017)
