May I suggest cloning the grass repo and adding the fork as an 
additional remote, this makes merging changes from the grass repo 
easier.

  git clone https://github.com/OSGeo/grass.git
  cd grass
  git remote add github https://github.com/<username>/grass.git
  git remote set-url --push github 
ssh://git@github.com/<username>/grass.git
  ...
  git push github <feature-branch>

This way origin is the authoritative source for the code, and additional 
remotes are forks.

Kind Regards,

Bas
