FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

create tasks T{NNNN} asign them
create a branch with name like "T{NNNN}-boo-hoo"
git checkout -b T1234-boo-foo
commit changes on that branch until it gets ready to be reviewed
git commit -am 'first'
git commit -am 'now it works'
check if it's lint free (NOTE: it runs lint against only modified files)
arc lint

	So you've cloned somebody's repo from github, but now you want to fork it and contribute back. Never fear!

	Technically, when you fork "origin" should be your fork and "upstream" should be the project you forked; however, if you're willing to break this convention then it's easy.

	* Off the top of my head *

	1. Fork their repo on Github
	2. In your local, add a new remote to your fork; then fetch it, and push your changes up to it

	git remote add my-fork [email protected]
