So this works great locally, but how can I get my GitHub repo master branch to be the same as locally/upstream??

This is possible with a one-liner that doesn't require downloading anything...

For anyone interested in syncing your GitHub-hosted fork directly (without cloning locally first) you can do this using the GitHub CLI:

gh repo sync owner/cli-fork -b BRANCH-NAME
