Question: how do you handle pull requests from different GitHub repositories?

Source: github-and-go-forking-pull-requests-and.html

1. Fork the repository github.com/orig/cooltool to github.com/fork/cooltool

2. Get the original repository: go get github.com/orig/cooltool

3. Add a remote to your forked repository: git remote add fork https://github.com/fork/cooltool.git

4. Edit and commit on the local repository: github.com/orig/cooltool

5. Whenever you have a commit to push, send them to your remote: git push fork

Then your forked repository will always remain ready to merge toward the upstream.
