You can then proceed to easily develop in your own branches, pull in new commits from the dev branches, merge them, and eventually push to your own repo on github.
When you are ready to submit your changes to Qubes to be merged, push your changes, then create a signed git tag (using `git tag -s`). Finally, send a letter to the Qubes listserv describing the changes and including the link to your repository. Don't forget to include your public PGP key you use to sign your tags.
Copying Code to dom0
--------------------
When developing it is convenient to be able to rapidly test changes. Assuming you're developing Qubes on Qubes, you should be working in a special VM for Qubes and occasionally you will want to transfer code or rpms back to dom0 for testing.
Here are some handy scripts Marek has shared to facilitate this.
### Syncing dom0 files
