I think I know what you're talking about here, but I want to clarify.
You get a copy of the "upstream" frob module. You then do some local
changes and even local commits against frob. You can query upstream
"frob" to see if anything changed upstream and integrate those into your
copy. Eventually you take your local changes and push them 'upstream',
right?
If upstream here is the Fedora scm, then this is what I mean.
