Go to Bitbucket and create a new repository (its better to have an empty repo) | |
git clone [email protected]:abc/myforkedrepo.git | |
cd myforkedrepo | |
Now add Github repo as a new remote in Bitbucket called "sync" | |
git remote add sync [email protected]:def/originalrepo.git | |
Verify what are the remotes currently being setup for "myforkedrepo". This following command should show "fetch" and "push" for two remotes i.e. "origin" and "sync" | |
git remote -v | |
Now do a pull from the "master" branch in the "sync" remote | |
git pull sync master | |
Setup a local branch called "github"track the "sync" remote's "master" branch | |
git branch --set-upstream github sync/master | |
Now push the local "master" branch to the "origin" remote in Bitbucket. | |
git push -u origin master | |
