I don't really see the point. Couldn't you get a similar result by maintaining 
your own branch beside master branch ?

Unless your patches are needed outside a git repo (for example debian patches 
are needed in Debian build systems outside of a git repo), you probably don't 
need to maintain your modifications with quilt.

I must have missed something there.

All the best
