Did I get this right?

[beppe9000]

I want to fork a third party project in my private repository, store my new modifications in a “dev” branch and keep the repository up to date with the upstream commits.

Setup

1. git clone <url>
2. git branch dev
3. git checkout dev

Update

1. git fetch
2. git checkout dev
3. git rebase upstream/master

Is this correct?

HI @beppe9000,

Thanks for being here! Yes, you are correct to keep your fork up to date:

git fetch upstream
git rebase upstream/master

thanks so the upstream parameter was needed
