Here is the problem, you need to merge some works from “foo” branch in “repo1″ to your current default branch in “repo2″, let’s say branch “master”. Below are the steps you do.
First of all, add a remote repository

git remote add bar git@example.com:bar/repo1.git

then download objects and refs from another repository

git fetch

now checkout the branch which will you merge

git checkout --track -b foo bar/foo

swith to “foo” branch and check that everything is good to go

git checkout foo

then you move back to your current directory
