Work with a fork

What is a fork?

A fork is a copy of a repository, with forking you will be free to experiment with changes without affecting the original project.

Steps

• Go to the origin repo on GitHub
  • GIT Training
• In the top-right corner of the page, click Fork
  • Now you will have a copy of the original repo in your Github account
• Clone your fork on your local machine.

Configuring a remote for a Fork.

You must configure a remote that points to the origin version of a repository(upstream) in Git to sync changes you make in that fork with the original repository, in this case we would use it mostly to update our fork.

• Move to your fork
• Open your terminal
• git remote add upstream [email protected]:yodarjun/git-training.git
• Verify the new upstream repository you've specified for your fork.
  • git remote -v

Update your fork

To get new branches:

• git fetch upstream

To update master branch

• git switch master
• git rebase upstream/master
• git push
