Hi, Ben. I believe you only need a single fork. Configure your working copy of Homebrew to have three remotes: mxcl/homebrew, homebrew/linuxbrew and benswift/homebrew. You will be tracking two branches: master and linuxbrew.
[remote "origin"]
url = https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[remote "sjackman"]
url = https://github.com/sjackman/homebrew
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/sjackman/*
[remote "linuxbrew"]
url = https://github.com/Homebrew/linuxbrew
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/linuxbrew/*
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master
[branch "linuxbrew"]
remote = linuxbrew
merge = refs/heads/linuxbrew

Cool, thanks mate.
I've fixed up a couple of formula which weren't building for me (Ubuntu 13.10), do you want me to push the patches upstream? Do I just create new branches for each formula as they like for OSX?
from legacy-linuxbrew.
Yes, that'd be great. The patches should be guarded in if OS.linux?
and if OS.mac?
so that the formula still build correctly on OS X.

Ah, cool, that's how we're doing it. I was wondering about that. So do they have to be reviewed by both maintainers now?

Portability patches sadly aren't generally being accepted into mxcl/homebrew. Feel free to petition them to hopefully change this policy.

Ah, ok. So we'll just keep on adding the if OS.blah
checks just in case, but for the moment we'll just be doing a lot of merging to keep up with them :)
