I'm not using git/github for development on a project, as much as I used it to install software i wanted to run on my server. What's the best way to pull (merge, cherry-pick?) a feature that was added to a fork but hasn't yet been merged to the master?

+ [2016-09-14T10:06:17Z] okdamn not the content just the empty folder
