I'd say the best way is to set remotes for upstream and your fork in your clone: git remote add upstream g...@gitlab.gnome.org:GNOME/pan.git git remote add dgraef g...@gitlab.gnome.org:dgraef/pan.git Then just create a new branch from upstream origin and push to your fork: git checkout upstream/master git checkout -b newbranch git push dgraef newbranch It's better to keep creating new branches rather than trying to keep your fork's master branch in sync, I think. > I've read this: > > https://gitlab.gnome.org/help/workflow/repository_mirroring > > "You can also manually trigger an update at most once every 5 minutes." > > Question is how to do this?

I think what that page describes is not keeping your fork updated against the origin (upstream), but rather mirroring gitlab.gnome.org to some other external hosting services.
