Sorry, I believe I misread the Genode Contributors guide. Genode does not use 
pull requests, they copy commits that are referenced within issues? So I should 
make an issue in the repository, then reference my commit against it and genode 
will copy that into their repository?

Should I use the master branch for my development in this case and reference my 
commits to the issues from my master branch?
