If someone forks a gist and you'd like to merge their changes. Do this:
-
clone your repo, I use the name of the gist
git clone git://gist.github.com/1163142.git gist-1163142
-
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
