Merge a forked gist

If someone forks a gist and you'd like to merge their changes. Do this:

  1. clone your repo, I use the name of the gist

     git clone git://gist.github.com/1163142.git gist-1163142
    
  2. add a remote for the forked gist, I'm using the name of my fellow developer

     git remote add aaron git://gist.github.com/1164196.git
    
  3. pull and merge the new remote into master

     git pull aaron master
    
  4. push the changes

     git push
