I have a remote repository that I’ve been making contributions to. The way I did this was by creating a fork of this repository on my git and periodically pushing my local developments to a branch on this forked remote. Once I finished my contributions I made a pull request to the original repository and had my changes pushed there.

Now I would like to continue to use my remote repository for personal development, however, when I pushed to my forked remote on a new branch there is a notification on the original upstream repository saying that I’ve done this push. Is there a way for me to use this repository without this happening everytime + some way to revert this notification?

I tried to push to my remote repository, forked from an upstream. The push was successful but everyone on the upstream repo was notified of my push. I was expecting it to only be visible to me since I created a new branch to push to.
