Sid and testing are not usually more than two weeks apart until the
freeze, unless something dreadful happened to a new package in sid. A
sid installation will normally have a banner showing the release as
'sid/forky' (or whatever testing is) and should contain both sets of
repositories. I don't think you need worry about sid separately, it's a
fairly fast-moving target.
