1.

   Open Terminal.

2.

   List the current configured remote repository for your fork.

   |$ git remote -v > origin
   https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (fetch) > origin
   https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (push) |

3.

   Specify a new remote /upstream/ repository that will be synced with
   the fork.

   |git remote add upstream
   https://github.com/ORIGINAL_OWNER/ORIGINAL_REPOSITORY.git |

4.

   Verify the new upstream repository you've specified for your fork.

   |$ git remote -v > origin
   https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (fetch) > origin
   https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (push) > upstream
   https://github.com/ORIGINAL_OWNER/ORIGINAL_REPOSITORY.git (fetch) >
   upstream https://github.com/ORIGINAL_OWNER/ORIGINAL_REPOSITORY.git
   (push) |
