Here’s another great tip from Wilfred Hughes’ Emacs Command of the Day:
M-x github-clone
This awesome command will clone a github repo from any URL format you can imagine.
It can even automatically fork the repo for you, so you're all ready to send pull requests!
The package is at https://t.co/3IKGFrqKNq and available on MELPA. pic.twitter.com/oYYzuq4cFk

It’s a separate package so you’ll have to install it but if you work a lot with GitHub, it appears to be a worthwhile addition. Checkout the README at its GitHub repository for instructions on how to use it.
