Perhaps we need a discussion about our maintainer workflow for pull requests
from github.

Since I don't want to review, build, test, refine a pull request from github
in a github tree, I chose the following workflow in my  git tree based on
the pcp.io repository ...

- in this instance
  $ git remote add marc https://github.com/marcliangma7/pcp.git
  but the <name> (marc) and the <url> might be different

- $ git fetch marc

- $ tig remotes/marc/fix-memory-leak-in-libpcp-pmda

- cherry pick the commit(s) in question

- review, build, test, ...

- push back to pcp.io in my git tree

- wait for review and pulling into the official tree

If there is a better workflow, I'm all ears.

I have no clue if the "EC2 Default User" is specific to the way
"marcliangma" committed on github or is generic to any commit made directly
on github.
