Well you need to have a clean "Working Copy" (as it is called in SVN) to
do the git tricks rebase a.s.o. Therefore you need to commit changes
before doing the rework. Therefore it would be best to have a single
branch collecting the patches to go upstream. This branch can be used to
rework a patch for next submission.

But there is another solution. You can have a seperate repository ...
When you use 'git clone' switches --local, --shared and --reference you
can safe disk space.
