Its not a hard and fast rule (Geany has relatively few of them), but if something gets to the point where its actually usable, then doing further development on a pull request is occasionally done, the problem is that anyone contributing more than just comments has to make the pull request to your repo anyway, and pull requests there are not visible on the Geany one until its merged, resulting in two places to be tracked. Thats a failing of github.

But irrespective of the development method, making all changes in a branch is mandatory, nobody will test something if it changes their master, master should purely track upstream, ie the Geany github repo. It also helps you too, you can sidetrack your changes simply by checking out a new branch, or back to master to pull down any changes from upstream.
