It's sometimes easier to send patches to upstream if you can just send them a pull request. In fact, one of my upstreams (ola) has told me repeatedly that they prefer that. It's easier to send them a pull request if your code is on the same platform as theirs. However, using their platform does not require that you *only* use their platform. My ola repository is on github[1], but also on salsa[2].
