I'm still not in the swing of things with github. I recently made some changes to a style, following the guidance note in README.md:
*** The preferred way to make contributions is to: 1. fork the main repository 2. create a temporary development branch and make your changes there 3. commit your changes in one atomic commit per style in the master branch 4. issue a pull request to the main repository *** The pull request was picked up, and the changes were published. Then the original style author made some adjustments to the code, submitted as a pull request which was also picked up and published. The master repo is in good shape. Now I'm looking at the github fork I created, and I don't see any means of pulling down the recent change submitted by the original style author. There seem to be three possibilities: 1. I'm missing something, and all I have to do is press the right button; or 2(a). There is no simple way to pull down changes from the origin to a github fork, so the fork created for the edit should be thrown away immediately after submitting the pull request; and 2(b). I would do better to clone the repo master and handle git from the command line instead, where this seems to be possible with "pull". Any guidance very welcome.
