In your local clone of your forked repository, you can add the original GitHub repository as a "remote". ("Remotes" are like nicknames for the URLs of repositories - origin is one, for example.) Then you can fetch all the branches from that upstream repository, and rebase your work to continue working on the upstream version. In terms of commands that might look like:

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

BBEdit / BBEdit-Lite / TextWrangler Regular Expression Guide              Modified: 2018/08/10 01:19

NOTES: 

The PCRE engine (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions) is what BBEdit and TextWrangler use.

Items I'm unsure of are marked '# PCRE?'.  The list while fairly comprehensive is not complete.
