Update fork to upstream

https://gist.github.com/CristinaSolana/1885435

git remote add upstream git://github.com/ros-visualization/qt_gui_core.git
git fetch upstream
git pull upstream kinetic-devel
git push

Now the github page say "This branch is even with ros-visualization:kinetic-devel.", at least until more commits are made, then the fetch pull push needs to be repeated.

Does the remote add need to be done for every new clone of the same repo?

Make a feature branch

git checkout -b unknown_plugin_perspective
Switched to a new branch 'unknown_plugin_perspective'
git push

fatal: The current branch unknown_plugin_perspective has no upstream branch.
To push the current branch and set the remote as upstream, use

    git push --set-upstream origin unknown_plugin_perspective

git push --set-upstream origin unknown_plugin_perspective

Now the branch appears under branches pulldown on github page.
