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:

Check if the DOM node is visible in the viewport
function elementInViewport(el) {
var rect = el.getBoundingClientRect()
return rect.top < (window.innerHeight || document.body.clientHeight) && rect.left < (window.innerWidth || document.body.clientWidth);
}
// and then you can use it:
alert(elementInViewport(document.getElementById('inner')));
// or
alert(elementInViewport($('#inner')[0]));​
