Comment #7 on issue 2217 by [email protected]: Patches tutorial
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2217

I don't understand something.

You have written that 'The user should always clone from git://github.com/sympy/sympy.git. Otherwise, he will not be able to pull in new changes with git pull'

But [1] offer this way for solving it:

    # Assigns the original repo to a remote called "upstream":
    git remote add upstream git://github.com/sympy/sympy.git

    git fetch upstream

I also have added in [2] section `Synchronization with master sympy/sympy` about it.

On the one hand I also tend to use `origin` remote name only for read-only `sympy/sympy` repository. In this case the difference between "Quick patch" way and "GitHub variant" way will be minimal, and the document [2] will be less tangled.

On the other hand, if `origin` will be assigned to `sympy/sympy`, then deviation from [1] will be. If someone will be checked for more information with [1] then he might to be tangled too. And I am not sure, that now all learn how to send a path by our document.
