How to Maintain LightlySSL

Update PR from a Fork

Sometimes it is necessary to update a PR from a forked LightlySSL repository, for example to add some finishing touches (format, cleanup, docs), to fix some difficult issue, or to finish an incomplete feature.

Let's assume there is a PR from <username>:<branch-name>. To update the PR, follow these steps:

git remote add <username> https://github.com/<username>/lightly.git
git fetch <username>
git checkout -b <branch-name> <username>/<branch-name>

Now you can make changes and push them to the PR branch with git push.
