Probably, There is no document about it in the wiki. I think there is no
problem even if a new branch is not created. But you may get a problem in your
repository after your PR is merged. e.g. If your commits are rebased then
merged in the upstream repository, the upstream repository has the different
commit id from your one. To keep the master branch up-to-date with the upstream
repository, I recommend that you use it :)
> Clarify the status of donated files from ApacheNetBeansDonation1.zip

> Key: NETBEANS-54
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-54
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
> Attachments: categorized-1.zip, convert-headers-1.zip,
> JavaApplication9.java
>
>
> Reviewing the software grant [1] provided with the first NetBeans code
> donation, my understanding is that not all files found in that zip are
> donated.
> The grant indicates that the contents of that file [2] ("Code File") are
> donated "excluding any third-party and separately licensed material contained
> within the Code File".
> I don't think we can consider that code ready to release as is, due to the
> uncertainty that this creates w.r.t to which files are donated and which are
> not.
> The zip archive contains about 45'000 files.
> I see the following options:
> a) Review all files and include only those which are not "third-party and
> separately licensed material". How such files are identified needs to be
> defined and documented, either in scripts under version control or as a set
> of rules. The review process must be documented and traceable, so that we can
> go back to it if problems are found in the future.
> b) Get an updated grant which does not mention such exclusions.
> If someone sees other options please discuss here or on the NetBeans dev
> list, referencing this ticket.
> [1] in svn under private/documents/grants/oracle-america-netbeans.pdf , ASF
