@KerinPithawala

Description

@KerinPithawala

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The contributions guidelines help a new open-source programmer to contribute to this project. However when there are changes in the remote repository and it's not reflected in local computers, then a lot of confusion arises. So there should be guidelines to fetch updated repository.

Describe the solution you'd like
Addition of points stating using the fetch and upstream command to update local repository.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Addition of Github docs links related to resolving conflicts in contributing.md file.

Approach to be followed (optional)
Add the following points:

  • Add a reference to the original repository.

git remote add upstream https://github.com/Neilblaze/Anyxz.git

  • Check the remotes for this repository.

git remote -v

  • Always take a pull from the upstream repository to your master branch to keep it at par with the main project(updated repository).

git pull upstream master
