- Clone a repository you own, using just the repository name rather than the full URL:

`hub clone {{repo_name}}`

- Clone another user's repository, using their github username and the repository name:

`hub clone {{username}}/{{repo_name}}`

- Create a fork of the current repository (cloned from another user) under your github profile:

`hub fork`

- Push the current local branch to github and create a PR for it in the original repository:

`hub push {{remote_name}} && hub pull-request`

- Create a PR of the current (already pushed) branch, reusing the message from the first commit:

`hub pull-request --no-edit`

- Create a new branch with the contents of a pull request and switch to it:

`hub pr checkout {{pr_number}}`

- Upload the current (local-only) repository to your github account:

`hub create`
