I am forking from
which results in
github.com/MYACCOUNT/mantisbt
from where I clone it and checkout the branch (I am interested in) to my local machine.
My issue is that I would like to fetch the latest branch (master-1.2.x) from the remote repository (mantisbt/mantisbt) and merge it under the same branch the to my local repository.
Which would result in something like
git fetch remote-repo-branch
git merge remote-repo-branch/local-branch
How is this done?
UPDATE:
content is fetched with
git fetch upstream master-1.2.x
and merged to currently checked out branch with
git merge origin/master-1.2.x
