You'll need:

Vagrant
Vagrant's VMware Fusion provider

patch-edid.rb

A script to fix EDID problems on external monitors in macOS.

Instructions

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 = [email protected]: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:

	# encoding: UTF-8

	require 'optparse'
	require 'net/http'
	require 'json'

	def parse_options(argv)
	opts = {}

	@parser = OptionParser.new do \|o\|
