Talk:FlightGear Git: data developers

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
