how to update my forked branch with master in github code example

Example 1: update my fork repository at github

# 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

# 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 2: how to update forked repo in GitHub

## Clone your fork:

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

## 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

## Updating your fork from original repo to keep up with their changes:

git pull upstream master
