You can have the best of both worlds. I deploy both minified and fully readable scripts on the server, eg. /js/xyz_min.js and /js/xyz.js.
When the application is in debug mode, the non-modified original files are loaded and can be debugged easily. In normal mode the minimized scripts are loaded.
Debug mode is automatically activated when the URL has an additional parameter ?debug=1.
