Not really but helps welcomed.

(But quite honestly, patching old document before debhelper/dh is
bocoming awkward)

Bu the way you can also read it:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debmake-doc/index.en.html

It coves much more packaging cases.  Also it comes with many small
simplified packaging examples in the source too.  So this is much better
learning tool as the structure. 

One missing thing is "dgit" ;-)

I only use it for drive-by-package modification.  But it seems to be
much more than this use case.  If you can come up with nice short text
with appropriate external resource pointer, I appreciate.  I am also
looking for a pointer to external resource for "git dpm".

If there is not much opposition, I am thinking to retire maint-guide and
replace it with debmake-doc which covers everything maint-guide did and
much more.
