Comment(by erinn):

 I think it's probably easier for everyone if you have your own git repo
 for rpm-related files, because otherwise you will have to submit patches
 to tor.git every single time you make a change, or run the risk of your
 local changes being out of sync with what's in tor.git. I guess it depends
 on how many changes you think you'll be making, but in theory what's in
 git should be what's in the rpm, and while Nick is generally very quick to
 merge, it could get annoying for you to ask for it all the time. Keep in
 mind that the ideal way for you to submit patches is to have a branch that
 can be merged from, and you will have to add a changes file each time. IMO
 there is a lot less overhead to just keeping it all in your own repo.
