Git cherry-pick from another repository
Let's say you want to apply some patches from someone else repository:
# Cloning our fork
$ git clone git clone git@github.com:ifad/rest-client.git
# Adding (as "endel") the repo from we want to cherry-pick
$ git remote add endel git://github.com/endel/rest-client.git
# Fetch their branches
$ git fetch endel
# List their commits
$ git log endel/master
# Cherry-pick the commit we need
$ git cherry-pick 97fedac
# Pushing to our master
$ git push origin master

Or light version:
git fetch <remote-git-url> <branch> && git cherry-pick SHA1
For example:
git fetch https://github.com/antonbabenko/imagepush2 && git cherry-pick 20258def3280b4ccba286c4a021140c66292ebc0

2. git remote add endel git://github.com/endel/rest-client.git => git remote add endel https://github.com/endel/rest-client.git
