Fetch all upstream updates from the remote (e.g. Github)

$ git fetch --all 
$ git pull --all

	#!/usr/bin/env bash
	autopick() {
	git fetch --all &&
	git checkout release &&
	git pull &&
	git submodule update &&
	git checkout -b hotfix/rel-$2 &&
	git cherry-pick $1 &&
	git push -u origin hotfix/rel-$2 &&
	git checkout master &&
