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 https://github.com/whoever/whatever.git

Fetch all the branches of that remote into remote-tracking branches, such as upstream/master:

git fetch upstream

Here's a little walkthrough of how Yannick and I are using feature branches and pull requests to develop new features and adding them to the project. Below are the steps I take when working on a new feature. Hopefully this, along with watching the process on Github, will serve as a starting point to having everyone use a similar workflow.

Questions, comments, and suggestions for improvements welcome!

Start with the latest on master

When starting a new feature, I make sure to start with the latest and greatest codebase:

git checkout master

1. Clone your fork:

git clone [email protected]:YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-FORKED-REPO.git

2. Add remote from original repository in your forked repository:

cd into/cloned/fork-repo
git remote add upstream git://github.com/ORIGINAL-DEV-USERNAME/REPO-YOU-FORKED-FROM.git
git fetch upstream
