Hey Michael,
Generally the ssh protocol (git@....). I will remove the ambiguity in the
working with git doc.
However there are a number of ways you can do this, it actually doesn't
matter since you can simply change the remote urls in your local copy after
you clone it. Generally what I would do this.
1. Go to https://github.com/geotools/geotools/ and fork the repository into
your own github account.
2. After that you should be able to glone using the ssh url:
git clone g...@github.com:mbedward/geotools.git
3. Once cloned locally you can set up the geotools remote:
git remote add geotools g...@github.com:geotools/geotools.git
4. Rename the origin remote to your username"
git remote rename origin mbedward
Like i said, there are a number of ways to structure this. You may want to
keep origin pointing to your remote repo, or you can have origin point to
the canonical geotools repo. It is really your preference.
