Thanks guys for the explanations. I'll study them -- I think I'm missing some (probably simple) key piece of how git works internally that would probably make this all obvious; hopefully these examples will help me figure out what that piece is(!).
When I wrote "main repo", of course, I meant the one where the rest of the racket dev world sees the changes, intended to be a contrast with "my laptop and my desktop" where I'll be pushing/pulling/cloning/whatevering between before I'm ready for the world to see. My apologies for offending your git terminology sensibilities. And yes, Eli is right that I'd like to consider moving between my machines to be the exception rather than the norm.
