Need to debug between two separate pre-existing repos

I have to separate git Python repos that I have to debug between. In other words, one repo imports code from the other. For example, file1.py in repo1 imports code from repo2 via

import repo_2

and I have to debug both sets of code. I have setup a separate debug branch under each repo and I switch to the respective debug branch when I am debugging, but I was hoping there was a technique I could use to automate or keep track of this. That way, I could debug in a more organized way.

I hope that made some sense.

If you're using two projects in two different git repos that have some sort of version connection to eachother, it's recommended that you use submodules for this. See: http://git-scm.com/book/ch6-6.html

Even if the text is somewhat negative against submodules... The other alternative is to use a subtree, that's the next chapter. Jugde yourself what you think fits your situation the best. From the information you've supplied so far I would say you want submodules.
