Clone a project repo to your account

```git clone ssh_string local_directory```

In order to keep in sync with the official repo

```git remote add upstream ssh_string(official repo)```

Get information about that remote

`git fetch upstream`

You need to point your master to the upstream/master (official)

`git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream/master master`

The remote copy of the repo in your account is called origin

Before making any changes to the project, you should review the *contributing.md* file or
the *readme.md* or *wiki* in order to know how to set-up the project development environment,
coding standards and contributing guidelines.
