How do I manage that?

What I used to do (back when I managed proprietary dissectors) was to keep some commits on a branch off of master where one of the changes was to add my dissectors to epan/dissectors/Custom.common.  Then I'd just do a `git fetch` followed by `git rebase origin/master myprivatebranch` to keep my branch up to date.
