git pr 1337

Simple script to locally pull a PR from Github without committing it

Use as a git alias:

Add this to your git config (eg ~/.gitconfig)

[alias]
    pr = "!php /full/path/to/ozh_git_pr.php"

Usage

Assuming you want to locally test PR #1337, just do:

git pr 1337

This will be equivalent to :

git checkout -b pr-1337
git pull --no-commit https://github.com/SOMEDUDE/SOMEFORK.git SOMEBRANCH

In details:

• creates a new branch named pr-1337 and switch to it
• pulls whatever repo/branch has been submitted as the PR on Github
• but does not commit changes, so you still see what files are modified and what's changed in them
