Having a private branch of a public repo on GitHub?

by
  1. Duplicate your repo.
  2. Make the duplicated repo a private one on GitHub.
  3. Clone the private repo to your machine
  4. Add a remote to your public repo (git remote add public git@github.com:…)
  5. Push branches with commits intended for your public repo to that new public remote. (make sure you don’t accidentally commit private-only code)
  6. You can bring in changes to your public repo using ‘git fetch public’ and then merge them locally and push to your private repo (origin remote).
