how to rebase fork with master code example
Example 1: git rebase fork
git remote add upstream https://github.com/whoever/whatever.git
git fetch upstream
git checkout master
git rebase upstream/master
git push -f origin master
Example 2: rebase forked branch with master
# 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
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
Example 3: rebase my fork branch
git checkout master # Make sure you are in master
git remote add author original_repo_that_you_forked_from
# Note: This is in the format [email protected]:authors_name/repo_name.git
# Only needs definition once, future fetches then use it.
git fetch author
git status # make sure you are in the master branch for the following merge
git merge author/master # i.e. 'into' your master branch
git checkout your-branch
git rebase master # Now get those changes into your branch.
git push origin your_branch # You can also use `-f` if necessary and `--all`
