- Make Your Fork Track the Original Upstream Repo
- It's a fork. Hur hur hur.
- This step isn't absolutely necessary, but I find it very useful if you plan on working on this project for anything more than a very quick fix. Use the following commands to add the 'upsteam' (original project location) as a remote branch so that you can get their updates into your branch. Replace the 'upstreamname' and 'projectname' values with that actual user/project name that you're trying to track.
- git remote add --track master upstream git://github.com/upstreamname/projectname.git
- view rawgistfile1.txtThis Gist brought to you by GitHub.
- This will add the original project as a remote named 'upstream'. To get the code, type:
- git fetch upstream
- Then, to merge it into your own project, type:
- git merge upstream/master
- Tada! Now you'll have an up-to-date version of the upstream code in your current branch.
