Add `git bigstore fetch <repository>` command #36

Closed jansel closed 7 years ago

jansel commented 7 years ago

git-bigstore currently does not work well with a forking workflow. In this workflow, there is no central repository to store bigstore metadata/notes. This patch (and the prior one) adds support for this workflow.

This patch adds a command:

git bigstore fetch upstream

Which will take the metadata on the remote upstream and merge/push it to the remote origin. One can now manually sync bigstore metadata across forks. This is still not ideal, but it is an improvement over the current version.
