In the above setup, your ``origin`` remote-repository points to
YourLogin/scikit-learn.git. If you wish to `fetch/merge` from the main repository instead of your `forked` one, you'll need
to add another remote to use instead of ``origin``. If we choose the name
``upstream`` for it, the command will be::
$ git remote add upstream git@github.com:scikit-learn/scikit-learn.git
(If any of the above seems like magic to you, then look up the
`Git documentation <http://git-scm.com/documentation>`_ on the web.)
