Actually having played with this for a few days now I can say that this
fork/clone approach feels like just extra steps for which I cannot see the
benefit. I should have stuck to my guns initially and not let you talk me into
fork/clone ;)
What I personally do is clone the reference repository "locally" and fork via
github. Then on the locally cloned repo I add the fork as a remote
Git remote add perso git@github.com:joesixpack/hibernate-core.git
That way, I can use the short cut version for simple works and share some branches with
others under joesixpack in case I need it. Best of both worlds as I work under the same
local repo.
