How to move to a fork after cloning

If you are like me you find yourself cloning a repo, making some proposed changes and then deciding to later contributing back using the GitHub Flow convention. Below is a set of instructions I've developed for myself on how to deal with this scenario and an explanation of why it matters based on jagregory's gist.

To follow GitHub flow you should really have created a fork initially as a public representation of the forked repository and the clone that instead. My understanding is that the typical setup would have your local repository pointing to your fork as origin and the original forked repository as upstream so that you can use these keywords in other git commands.

  1. Clone some repo (you've probably already done this step)

    git clone git@github...some-repo.git

Forces all line endings to LF in your git repo.

# Use this with or without the .gitattributes snippet with this Gist
# create a fixle.sh file, paste this in and run it.
# Why do you want this ? Because Git will see diffs between files shared between Linux and Windows due to differences in line ending handling ( Windows uses CRLF and Unix LF)
# This Gist normalizes handling by forcing everything to use Unix style.

Setup git send-email using git credentials

Setup git send-email: following these instructions I had some problems. But the following worked:

  • I’m using 2-factor auth on my gmail account so I had to get a “app-password”, see google documentation
  • Modify the global/local .gitconfig file with a sendemail section: [sendemail] smtpEncryption = tls smtpServer = smtp.gmail.com smtpUser = wink@saville.com smtpServerPort = 587
  • Also add a credential section with a helper.store entry:
