Collaboration using github and testing the code

The procedure in my team is that we all commit our code to the same development branch. We have a test server that runs updated code from this branch so that we can test our code on the servers. This test server is exposed on the internet so that we can test callbacks from third-party services like sendgrid. (where you specify a url for sendgrid to update you on the status of emails sent out)

What is proper etiquette and recommended GitHub workflow for simultaneously contributing to and diverging from upstream repo?

I’m new to GitHub and VCS in general. I’ve been programming in various languages for years, but I’ve always worked solo on custom projects (no public releases). I recently started using a jQuery UI widget I downloaded from GitHub in a project I am working on. The repo is no longer maintained by the original author. Another fork has incorporated some of the original pull requests. This is the one I forked from.

Can my GitHub and SourceForge account share the same repository?

I like that SourceForge can also let people browse your code using Git. But, before I even set up the project on SourceForge, I had a GitHub repository for it. Now that I have created my SourceForge project, I had the option to use the Git tool. The problem is when I did that it made a new repository from scratch. I would like to use my existing GitHub repository with my SourceForge project, is this possible? As of now the SourceForge project has no files, so the button on the summary page, instead of a ‘Download’ button, is a ‘Browse Code’ button, but the button leads to an empty repository.

code review with git-flow and github

With regular git and GitHub, I can do a code review by simply creating a pull request of the feature branch I’m working on to the master branch. How would I do code reviews with git-flow? With a workflow step like git flow feature finish (which merges the feature branch into the develop branch), I’m confused as to where the code review actually happens and how git-flow or git can facilitate that review.
