Great idea Justin - that is thinking on your feet. I have successfully to fork, 
and get set up from github.

Your instructions showed up here:
- 
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/blob/master/docs/user/advanced/build/source.rst

I took a detour to match how I do things for uDig (well actually the git hub 
convention of "upstream" being used to refer to the upstream repository):
- https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo

The extra steps were:
git clone g...@github.com:jive/geotools.git

cd geotools

git remote add upstream g...@github.com:geotools/geotools.git

And then to "refresh" my fork:
git pull upstream master

git push
