"fork" is probably the wrong word. I prefer the word "clone" instead. It 
is only anti-social if YOU (the developer) don't share your changes. You 
do that by sending a pull request to the original project.

See...

   git help request-pull

...for more details. And no, you don't require GitHub for pull requests, 
it's built right into Git.
