I'm a git noob, so I'm just trying to get started with something 
simple... If someone could confirm that the following is sensible, 
that'd be helpful:

- I forked libmesh / libmesh to create dknez / libmesh on github, and 
cloned my fork locally
- In my local clone I made a remote called "upstream" corresponding to 
https://github.com/libmesh/libmesh.git
- I made a small change ("Removed incorrect assert in 
equation_systems.C") and pushed it to dknez / libmesh
- I then made a pull request for this two-line change. So now I can just 
wait for the "integration manager" to commit the patch?

The only other thing I need is to be able to fetch from main repo in my 
local repo, and I thought "git fetch upstream" would do the job for 
that, but I get the error:
"fatal: 
https://github.com/libmesh/libmesh.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack 
not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?"
which is discussed on this page: 
https://help.github.com/articles/https-cloning-errors

But my git version is 1.8.0, so that should be fine. I was wondering if 
the error might be due to permissions in the libmesh / libmesh repo? 
(but I would've thought I'd only need read access to fetch...)

Thanks,
David
