Git: Fork GitHub Repo into different Repo -


original question

this git repository have @ moment, on github here:

master   railstut 

i'm looking @ customising cloudhead's toto rails backend within project.

the methodology can think of fork project, put within branch of noto repository:

master   railstut   toto 

the reason want because repo, each branch different method of me trying working backend blog. reason want branches , not different repositories each attempt keep contained , neat.

so... there way without downloading cloudhead's repo, unzipping working directory , committing it? googling hasn't helped, because i'm searching wrong commands (mainly fork, branch/checkout , clone)

questions clarify welcome!

bonus points if can still make pull requests bug fixes or updates. though, sounds little pointless, given i'm customising , not patching, forks intended?

you can add remote name cloudhead.

use

git remote add cloudhead git@github.com:cloudhead/toto.git 

then can pull using command:

git pull cloudhead master
