Jason,

Is your local repository a clone of the official (insoshi/insoshi)
repository or of your forked repository?

If you don't remember offhand, you can run "git config -l" and see what the
setting for remote.origin.url is.  If it's insoshi/insoshi, then you'll see
"git://github.com/insoshi/insoshi.git"

Our documentation (docs.insoshi.com) recommends that you start with a clone
of official repository and add your forked repository as a remote
connection.  It's not the only way to set things up but this particular
configuration makes it easier to pull in our updates because the clone
automatically sets up the tracking of official master branch to your local
master.

If you did start off with a clone of your forked repository, you can follow
Nick's instructions (thanks Nick!).

I'm working on updating our Git Guides with a bit more information on
working in teams, pulling/pushing updates and merge/rebase.  Just so I know
what I should be focusing on, are there any particular issues/questions that
you want answers on or more information?
