      <guid>http://me.chrisdevcode.com/posts/2021/syncing-a-forked-repo-with-the-parent-repo-on-github/</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A short guide and a practical reference to &lt;a href=&#34;https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/syncing-a-fork&#34;&gt;GitHub Documentation on syncing a repo.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s kind of an &amp;lsquo;open-source&amp;rsquo; hacks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the guide, I&amp;rsquo;ll be using a &lt;a href=&#34;https://github.com/ChrisAchinga/FbDevcCommunityContent&#34;&gt;repo&lt;/a&gt; I forked from &lt;a href=&#34;https://github.com/fbdevelopercircles/FbDevcCommunityContent&#34;&gt;FbDevcCommunityContent&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From the terminal, I will change my directory to where the project files are:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1609526934002/J5GB-3Oaz.png&#34; alt=&#34;terminal.png&#34; loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first step will be to fetch branches and their commits from the upstream, or the parent repository:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div class=&#34;highlight&#34;&gt;&lt;pre tabindex=&#34;0&#34; class=&#34;chroma&#34;&gt;&lt;code class=&#34;language-shell&#34; data-lang=&#34;shell&#34;&gt;&lt;span class=&#34;line&#34;&gt;&lt;span class=&#34;cl&#34;&gt;git fetch upstream
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1609527142520/U-XFSLp7m.png&#34; alt=&#34;terminal1.png&#34; loading=&#34;lazy&#34; decoding=&#34;async&#34;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After that, ensure that you are at the default repository on your remote repo. In my case, the default branch is &lt;code&gt;master&lt;/code&gt;, and so is the upstream.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
