I was reading on: <a href="https://wiki.diasporafoundation.org/Git_workflow#Rebase_your_development_branch_on_the_latest_upstream" rel="noreferrer">https://wiki.diasporafoundation.org/Git_workflow#Rebase_your_development_branch_on_the_latest_upstream</a> Here is an extract: <blockquote> Your Repository Up to Date In order to get the latest updates from the development trunk do a one-time setup to establish the main GitHub repo as a remote by entering: <pre><code>$ git remote add upstream git://github.com/diaspora/diaspora.git </code></pre> Rebase Your Development Branch on the Latest Upstream To keep your development branch up to date, rebase your changes on top of the current state of the upstream master. See the What’s git-rebase? section below to learn more about rebasing. If you’ve set up an upstream branch as detailed above, and a development branch called 100-retweet-bugfix, you’d update upstream, update your local master, and rebase your branch from it like so: <pre><code>$ git fetch upstream $ git checkout master $ git rebase upstream/master $ git checkout 100-retweet-bugfix </code></pre> [make sure all is committed as necessary in branch] <pre><code>$ git rebase master </code></pre> </blockquote> Why is adding a 'remote upstream' needed in this case? Coudn't I have just done: <pre><code>$ git checkout master $ git pull origin master $ git checkout 100-retweet-bugfix </code></pre> [make sure all is committed as necessary in branch] <pre><code>$ git rebase master </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
