How to create a personal fork of this template with the ability to pull in changes from upstream

[fretje]

If you want to be able to easily incorporate ongoing changes from this repo into your own, you have to start from the actual github repo.

Instructions here: https://gist.github.com/0xjac/85097472043b697ab57ba1b1c7530274

In a nutshell:

• Make a fork of the repository in your own github account
• Then clone and mirror that repo into your personal project repo.
• Then in your personal project repo, setup an upstream remote back to your fork of the project

You have to do the setup only once, but then you can easily pull in changes from the original repo into your personal project repo. I do it even from visual studio after I pulled in the changes into my fork on github: right click on remotes/upstream/main and click fetch, then right click again and click "merge upstream/main into main"... fix merge conflicts and voila...

We could probably fork that gist and update it with the exact right names and remove the steps that aren't necessary... I'll leave that up as an exercise for the reader... ;-)
