Do something like this:

git add remote foobar git://github.com/foobar/baz.git

git fetch foobar

At this point, you'll have their code saved in your local repository
in a remote branch; you can refer to it as "foobar/branchname".
You'll probably want to checkout a local branch based on
foobar/branchname, then figure out what you want to do relative to
your own code (merge, or cherry-pick).
