There was a problem hiding this comment.
This isn't quite right. You need to explain that setting this up requires editing the .git/config file, and, assuming that the GitHub remote has the name origin, the line
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*
Needs to be added as an additional line under the heading [remote "origin"]. Or I guess one could create a new remote so that PRs are only fetched on demand, like
[remote "pulls"]
url = git@github.com:web-platform-tests/wpt.git
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/pulls/*
I'm not sure which is best to document.
Also please use title case for the heading.
