3. Set it up Run the following commands to see that your local copy has a reference to your forked remote repository in Github
$ git remote -v
origin https://github.com/Your_Username/Hactober2020in600s.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/Your_Username/Hactober2020in600s.git (push)
Now, let's add a reference to the original Hactober2020in600s repository using
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/Darkknight698/Hactober2020in600s.git
