As an aside, for anyone else wanting to do this type of thing, I used
this to add a remote called 'github' to my existing checkout and make
the PRs available at ref github/pr/<number>:

git remote add github https://github.com/apache/qpid-java.git
git config --local --add remote.github.fetch
'+refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/github/pr/*'
git fetch --all

To use a different name for the remote, find/replace instances of
github other than in the mirror URL with your chosen remote name. To
use another repo, change the name in the URL.
