in a terminal cd place/where/you/want/the/code
eg cd code/git git clone https://github.com/migueldeicaza/MonoTouch.Dialog.git (this will make MonoTouch.Dialog folder under the current one) Job done :) This makes a copy (clone) of the original on your machine. You can commit locally, but without write access to Miguel's repo on github, you can't push to it. now, MD will pick up the git repo, show changes etc and allow you to commit within the ide. If you "fork" into your own account (ie, copy the source repo and make your own repo), then clone that (so the repo would be https://github.com/YOURNAMEHERE/MonoTouch.Dialog) you can then commit to your local repo, and push to github.... and all the other lovely things that get lets you do. This might help, too. http://think-like-a-git.net/epic.html And the pragmatic programmers book on git is very good. Personally, I dont use the MD integration - I tend to only use Tower, or the command line, but each to their own.
