Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

The `git get` command to replace `git pull` with a sophisticated rebase strategy
#!/bin/bash
#
# git get
#
# Place this script in your path, so that git(1) can find it. Presto!
# You can now type `git get` instead of `git pull` and enjoy the
# advantages of rebasing atop instead of merging remote changes.
#
# If you have local changes, use `git get --stash` to stash and
# pop afterwards your changes automatically.
