Managing the move to github

GIT supports the concept of ‘remote’ (that is, a server) and several remotes can be added to your local clone.Here are instructions to update your clone for github (example of the Linux kernel repository)

cd /path/to/clone/linux-socfpga
git remote add github https://github.com/altera-opensource/linux-socfpga
git fetch github
git checkout –b github_some_branch github/some_branch
# assuming your clone’s rocketboards’s remote name was origin
git remote remove origin # optional
git remote rename github origin  # optional
