Daniel,
Git is super easy once you get the hang of it. You will clone your own copy
of the repo in github and make updates to your own branches in it. Then
when you are ready to merge back to the production MS repo, you create a
pull request in github.
Git encourages profligate branching because it is so good at merging. I
recommend making a branch for anything you do. You might also want to get
SourceTree, which gives you a nice gui on top of git. It will show you the
branch history, and that may help you visualize how it works.
