In case of GitHub, I added a remote named upstream
to pull in latest changes to my forked repo using:
git remote add upstream git@github.com:<original_author_name>/<productname>.git
Here, git@github.com:<original_author_name>/<productname>.git
is displayed on my github dashborad, Once I forked the repo.
But in case of Bitbucket, I always see my forked repo location but not the original source from where I fork it from. Now how can I find the location of original repo which I could add as remote - upstream to pull in latest changes from original I forked?
If that information (the upstream repo address from which you have forked your own BitBucket Git repo) is really not available anywhere, try at list a pull request.
The pull request screen should display the candidate upstream repo name (that you can click to see its address).
Simply add it this way:
git remote add upstream git@bitbucket.org:YOUR-PROJECT-NAME.git
