First, set up the parent repo:
Open your forked repo in SourceTree.
Select Repository -> Repository Settings in the menu bar.
In the Remotes pane, press Add.
Enter any name you like (often upstream or master) and the URL / path to the parent repo.
Press OK, then OK.
Now, to update:
Select Pull in the toolbar.
In the "Pull from repository" drop-down, switch from your fork to the repo you just added.
Press OK.
(Optional) Once you pull, you may want to Push, to push the new content up to the server.
