Git: upgrading to parent

I have a fork of a GIT project. The parent had got ahead of my local repro by quite a bit, so I wanted to pull in all those changes.

• cd [child-local-dir]
• git remote add parent [parent-url]
• git pull parent [stable]

Clearly, if you want a different branch, you can specify that.

Once it's local, if you have a remote location for your repro (such as github) just

• git push
