working with github pull requests locally

Useful if someone submits a PR on your github project, and you want to try it out locally. Append this line to the [remote "origin"] section in your .git/config file:

	fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*

So the whole section will now look something like this:

[remote "origin"]
	url = [email protected]:joshwnj/monobrow.git
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*

Now when you git pull, you'll see a bunch of "pr" branches. You can switch to a PR branch with it's ID, like this:

git checkout pr/9
