# Add the remote, call it "upstream": | |
git remote add upstream https://github.com/whoever/whatever.git | |
# Fetch all the branches of that remote into remote-tracking branches, | |
# such as upstream/master: | |
git fetch upstream | |
# Make sure that you're on your master branch: | |
git checkout master | |
# Rewrite your master branch so that any commits of yours that | |
# aren't already in upstream/master are replayed on top of that | |
# other branch: | |
git merge upstream/master |
