Make your forked repo master to be the same as upstream/master

Raw

readme.md

Purpose

This is mainly used to make your git forked repo master same as upstream/master(user repo that you have forked orginally from) and ignore all you local commits to master. This might be needed in cases where you have pushed your local changes to master instead of a new branch, by mistake.
