diff --git a/Github move a patch to a PR b/Github move a patch to a PR
 I have to move a PR from this repo to another repo with slight difference in structure. That was how I did:

 1. Go to github page of the PR, add .patch to url to get the patch file
 E.g: http://github.com/<name>/<repo>/pull/<id>.patch

 2. Download as <id>.patch then open that file, edit changed file path (in old repo) to new file path (in new repo).
 You don't need to do this step if 2 repos have the same structure.

 3. git am -3 <id>.patch
 the -3 will do a three-way merge if there are conflicts.
 At this point you can do a git mergetool if you want to go to a gui or just manually merge the files using vim
