copied!<p>You can just add <code>foo/master</code> as a remote, merge it in from time to time (do this in <code><username>.github.com</code> repo):</p> <pre><code># add foo as remote (once) git remote add foo https://github.com/<username>/foo.git # fetch from remote (often) git fetch foo # merge changes to source (when you want) git checkout source git merge foo/master </code></pre> <p>You can set <code>origin/source</code> as remote for <code>source</code> and <code>origin/master</code> as remote for master as normal.</p> <p>You can also use <code>git fetch --all</code> to update all remotes, including <code>origin</code> and <code>foo</code>.</p> <p>If you don't change much in <code>source</code>, then the merge will almost always be fast-forward.</p> <hr> <p>You might want to set a remote url for foo that is read-only. This way you can't push from <code><username>.github.com</code> by accident and if it's a public repo, you won't need authentication (or password for your ssh key) for the fetch.</p> <hr> <p>You can keep git from fetching the <code>gh-pages</code> branch with</p> <pre><code>git config remote.foo.fetch "+/refs/heads/master:/refs/remotes/foo/master" git branch -rD foo/gh-pages </code></pre> <p>You just have to remember setting that when you expect any other branches than <code>master</code> to appear from <code>foo</code> remote.</p> <p>A good explanation of the refspec is in the <a href="http://git-scm.com/book/ch9-5.html" rel="nofollow">git book</a></p>
