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@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx's password:

>   commit: 06b4b2e
> * refs/remotes/gt/master: storing remote branch 'gt/master' of git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:dev
>   commit: 889a585
> * refs/remotes/jchumley/master: storing remote branch 'jchumley/ master' of git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:dev

> logan-2:~/commiters ocean$ git branch

>   +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"

 The problem is, when I clone git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:dev, the various
<username>/master's aren't there. I have tried a bunch of different ways,
 but they all give me errors. For example:

The default fetch refspec doesn't include the remotes - after all, you normally don't want the origin for your origin ...

 How can I access remote branches in a cloned repository on my local
 machine?

Try something like:

git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/*:+refs/remotes/*

sorry, that should have been:
git config remote.origin.fetch +refs/remotes/*:refs/remotes/*

git fetch
