Suggested Upstream section
As i found out when i followed these well-written instruction, if i had to sync my repository to final FGData to absolve conflicts in files modified and allow fast forwarding for the devs to merge easily.
I found a way that you can add a new remote to pull from and sync your next to.
git remote add upstream git://git.code.sf.net/p/flightgear/fgdata
check out to next and create your feature branch, i.e:
git checkout next
git checkout -b reflect-shader
fetch and merge the "upstream" remote into your feature branch:
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/master
