Github isn't exactly a utopia of UX.

Yesterday I was looking for a way to refresh an old fork with upstream. I'm pretty sure there was a button for this at one point. I looked. Couldn't find it. So instead I had to:

  $ cd ~/src
  $ mkdir github
  $ cd github
  $ git clone myfork
  $ cd myfork
  $ git remote add up upstream
  $ git pull up master
  $ git push origin master

Or something like that. I think I got lost somewhere along the way trying to checkout the upstream branch (is it "up/master" or "up master"? It depends) but it took 5-ish minutes.

Github may be pretty-ish, but I tend to avoid them these days. They're expensive, and they remove useful features. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice can't get fooled again.
