I can't claim to be a git expert, but I think you are using your svn
experience to make this assumption. I'm pretty sure that with git,
maintaining your fork will be easier than maintaining a set of patches
(hard to believe!) because the git fork is still related in some way
to the parent. You are able to pull down parent changes, resolving
conflicts where required and the opposite is also true. The parent is
able to pull in your changes much more easily.
That said, I don't know how to do any of it... I have just talked to
bharat about git during our drives to the colo.
Everyone I know that has moved to git has been happy for it, it beats
all the others quite handily. From what I know, there is already one
git fork of gallery3, maybe hunting that down could help explain
things (or give you someone to talk to that has done it). I also
think bharat has git forked to work on portions of gallery3.
Anyway :)
