$ git config credential.helper store --file .stupid-egg-spaces-credentials

If smileyface committers are making a branch before committing, note that your local branch needs to be pushed with a special parameter to create a remote if one doesn't already exist: git push -u origin <branch>

Wait, do I need to fork this?

You have a couple workflow options available to you -- since you're a collaborator, you can clone and directly contribute to master if you want.

It's a better practice to clone, make a local branch, commit to your local branch, push to the remote, and then create a pull request. Check out the bottom of https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rzNCgIKifRXT_ZwGKEQ_aupxuX8I045R96ZmclcOv6g/edit for common workflows

Check out #6 for a good discussion about pull requests
