I expect this will be the usual case, so one branch should work quite
well.

However in case you start hacking on something completely different
(eg. you notice that some quite unrelated function should be rewritten
or fixed), it would be better to have such changes separately to allow
easier and faster merging of such fixes. Preferably such branches
should branch off official repository.
