Hi Hartley,
Why don't you create a feature branches for your stuff, where you can
make commits freely, and track the upstream in another branch.
Then when one of your feature branches is complete, make a pull request
or send a patch for inclusion in mainline, and delete it after the code
was merged.
Here's a small document that describes such a workflow:
