IMHO UPSTREAM is name from the repository > you pull from and PUBLISH from the repositiry you push to. In your document, you're suggesting to clone from ORIGIN, and then to set pushRemote to origin. This means "git push" will push to ORIGIN, which doesn't work. Actually, if one follows your instructions, upstream and origin will point to the same remote. Did you test your own document on a real-life example? If not, you should do so before anything else. You should notice this kind of issues before asking for external review. -- Matthieu Moy https://matthieu-moy.fr/
