[Solved] How can I access remote branches in a cloned repository on my local machine?
Per Julian Phillips' suggestion:
> logan-2:~ ocean$ cd commiters/
> logan-2:~/commiters ocean$ git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/
remotes/*:refs/remotes/*
> logan-2:~/commiters ocean$ git fetch
> git@git.1kstudios.lan's password:
> * refs/remotes/eocean/master: storing remote branch 'eocean/
master' of git@git.1kstudios.lan:dev
> commit: 06b4b2e
> * refs/remotes/gt/master: storing remote branch 'gt/master' of
git@git.1kstudios.lan:dev
> commit: 889a585
> * refs/remotes/jchumley/master: storing remote branch 'jchumley/
master' of git@git.1kstudios.lan:dev

> logan-2:~/commiters ocean$ git branch
> +refs/remotes/eocean/master
> +refs/remotes/gt/master
> +refs/remotes/jchumley/master
> * master
> logan-2:~/commiters ocean$ git checkout +refs/remotes/jchumley/
master
> Switched to branch "+refs/remotes/jchumley/master"
