I am (obviously) new to git. Here is my scenario.
I have a local git repository (server that I maintain) setup for my project. I want to create create a sub-directory e.g. oss-project under my repository. And I want to get (copy) a project on github into that directory. I need to be able to:
1. maintain the commit history on the github project into my repository as well.
2. selectively pull any updates to the oss-project on github in future.

could you advise, what steps do i need to take to achive that?

```
git clone http://my-local-repo/my-project.git
cd my-project
md oss-project
cd oss-project
// How do i proceed ? git clone / fork the oss-project??

```

thanks for the help!
