hi, new user here just trying to get the big picture ... when one has a github repo, is it common to use git to maintain a local version of that repo? or is that now how it works?
+ [2015-01-13T00:24:35Z] siloxid something's very fishy. I can get the list from regular github pages such as https://api.github.com/repos/Netflix/netflix.github.com/contributors but I can't get it from my corporate github instance

+ [2015-01-13T00:41:32Z] dancrew32 fsync: it's for ignoring local files and directories that you don't want to check into a repo
+ [2015-01-13T00:41:43Z] fsync kk thank you
