Thanks for your advice, Matt.  I really don't want to spend time doing 
daily merges if I can avoid it.  And I'll look at Winmerge.  I think my 
ideal would be to create a branch in my fork that would only contain the 
files I'm working on.  But Git (or at least Github desktop) doesn't seem to 
work that way.  Otherwise I suppose that frequent updates from upstream 
would be the best way to go.

Well, thanks!  Though I feel that I'm just resurrecting Peter Mills's work 
and giving it a few tweaks.
