... As far as git is concerned, the main repo on github, your fork on github, and your local repo are 3 independent repositories, equally valid. The relationships between them are purely a matter of convention.

Thanks for that! It instantly cleared up several mysteries for me. I'm just starting to learn git & github, and am starkly reminded of an old truth: there is absolutely nothing "obvious" about source-control systems, or workflows, before you already know them ;-)
