The git commands once again, with some extra "show progress cmds"
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/boot/syslinux/syslinux.git
cd syslinux
git branch # show branches have we in OUR OWN repository
git branch -r # show the remote branches
git remote add shao git://git.etherboot.org/scm/people/sha0/syslinux.git
git fetch shao
git branch
git branch -r
git branch chain_fs -r shao/chain_fs
git branch # notice the new branch in OUR OWN repository
git checkout chain_fs
git branch # notice that we switched branch
