 If your experience deviates from this document, please document the changes

 to keep it up-to-date.

+It is important to note that this document assumes that the git remote in your

+repository that corresponds to "https://github.com/dotcloud/docker" is named

+"origin".  If yours is not (for example, if you've chosen to name it "upstream"

+or something similar instead), be sure to adjust the listed snippets for your

+local environment accordingly.  If you are not sure what your upstream remote is

+named, use a command like `git remote -v` to find out.

+

+```bash

+git remote add origin https://github.com/dotcloud/docker.git

+git remote add YOURUSER git@github.com:YOURUSER/docker.git

+```
