Get updates

Last Updated on 2024-01-29

If you have properly followed the instructions when Get the code, you should have a fork setup with the original asap as its upstream, thus allowing you to sync updates that may have been made in asap after you forked it.

Syncing your fork to keep it up-to-date with the upstream repository can be done from the Github web UI or from the command line. Both methods are described in detail at the GitHub Syncing a fork documentation page.

The following steps provide a summary of the command line method, assuming that the branch being worked on in your forked project is the develop branch.

git fetch upstream
remote: Enumerating objects: 5, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (5/5), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (1/1), done.
remote: Total 3 (delta 2), reused 3 (delta 2), pack-reused 0
Unpacking objects: 100% (3/3), 361 bytes | 6.00 KiB/s, done.

Tip

The example uses upstream/master as the branch with which the fork is kept in sync. You may want to use upstream/develop if you want to live on the cutting edge of asap features.
