OK, create your working branch and add your personal bits. You will
never issue a PR using that branch.
To update your repository when there are changes in the original see
https://help.github.com/articles/syncing-a-fork/
Then with your branch checked out you can do
git rebase master
to move your bits to the tip of master. Obviously if the working
branch on the main repo is not master then rebase to that.
It gets a bit fiddly if you want to issue a PR, I have done this by
starting a new branch on my personal branch and making the changes
there. Once that is all working rebase that branch onto master so you
can issue the PR.
