Try cloning the original (my copy) and then pushing that to your fork. e.g.

git clone git://repo.or.cz/rox-filer.git
cd rox-filer
git remote add mine ssh://repo.or.cz/srv/git/rox-filer/bju.git
git push mine --all

The only problem is that if two people apply your patches then GIT
will see that as two separate commits, whereas if we both pull from
your repository then it treats it as a single commit.
