It doesn't really matter what local branch you're on when you submit, so
sure, you can do that.

However, branches in git are extremely lightweight, and all it takes is
'git checkout -b foo'... I think we tend to find it easier to keep track
of things that way. If you don't create a branch, then any more changes
you make depend on that change (unless you 'git reset --hard HEAD^').
