I’m working on a project based on CakePHP, that’s hosted on GitHub. My project is being hosted on Bitbucket. Both of them use git. Basically I’d like to create a ‘fork’ (I don’t know if I’m using the right terms, since I’m new to git) of CakePHP in my Bitbucket repository, in order to be able to get the updates without the need to download all the CakePHP zip/tar and replace the folder, then commit and push, but maybe with a ‘merge’(?).

It’s not possible to send “pull request” across different sites today. I’ve added a feature request for this in the Bitbucket issue tracker: #3288. I suggest you add yourself as a follower if you want to track this.
However, you can still move the source from GitHub to Bitbucket without having to download any zip files or tarballs. You make a clone from GitHub and push to Bitbucket:
I created
mg/cakephpas an empty Git repository in Bitbucket first. That way you can push/pull changesets from GitHub to Bitbucket.
