I figure I must be doing something terribly wrong b/c I have never
been able to make effecitve use of the Fork Queue. Almost every commit
is always "Will likely not apply cleanly". On the rare occasions when
their were some "Will likely apply cleanly" (which was only early on),
applying them sometimes failed too.

So Iend up applying every submitted change by hand. But then no one's
fork ever stays in sync with the master but just gets further and
further astray. At this point my "best practice" is to tell others,
after I've applied their code by hand, to either add a remote, fetch,
reset hard, and push to "+master", or to just delete their fork and
refork b/c it's easier.

Perhaps someone can explain or point me to a resource that will
explain how to put the Fork Queue to good and proper use.

I note that it seems like it would be a really nice feature if GitHub
could provide an interface for corrective merging.
