How to update GitHub forked repository?

In your local clone of your forked repository, you can add the original GitHub repository as a "remote". ("Remotes" are like nicknames for the URLs of repositories origin is one, for example. ) Then you can fetch all the branches from that upstream repository, and rebase your work to continue working on the upstream version.In terms of commands that might look like: Add the remote, call it "upstream": git remote add upstream git://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 rebase upstream/master If you don't want to rewrite the history of your master branch, (for example because other people may have cloned it) then you should replace the last command with git merge upstream/master However, for making further pull requests that are as clean as possible, it's probably better to rebase Update : If you've rebased your branch onto upstream/master you may need to force the push in order to push it to your own forked repository on GitHub. You'd do that with: git push -f origin master You only need to use the f the first time after you've rebased.

Just found out about the GitHub mac app (mac.github. Com/help) this makes it very easy to use GitHub – Lea Hayes Sep 9 at 19:39.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
