I guess a version of this should be put onto a Wiki page. There are several people on this list who know a lot more about git than I do, and maybe they can help improve this guide, and correct its flaws.

Maybe it should add some explanation on how to delete merged branches 
from both your local checkout and your fork? At least when I used git 
for the first time I was a bit confused that you need to do a "push 
nothing to branch" push to get rid of the branch on your fork, but maybe 
that's just me..
