Accessing and reviewing a friend's branch.

I am contributing to a friend’s repository on GitHub. A few days ago, he told me he was working on a branch and wanted me to look at it to view his progress.

First, I wanted to ensure I didn’t have an upstream repository by using:

git remote -v

Next, I added my friend’s original repository as the remote repository with the command:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/myfriend/originalrepository.git

Then, I verified that the remote repository was added correctly:

git remote -v

To download the most recent information from the original repository, I used:

git fetch upstream

Next, I got the specific branch to my fork. First, I executed:

git checkout -b friend-branch upstream/friend-branch

And finally, I uploaded the branch to my fork on GitHub with:

git push origin friend-branch
