Or traditional _git_ commands -- whatever. :)

Personally, I find that when working with forks of something where I'm
a casual contributor, I end up doing this a lot:

  git remote add upstream https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/quick-docs

  git fetch upstream
  git reset --hard upstream/master  


(repeat last two steps)

Because I don't really want to keep a long-lived fork with local
changes and differences and merge. Possibly fedpkg could grow something
smart around this?
