A note about Remotes
Please read some background to help you understand better the difference between what origin and upstream mean in the context of git. This section explains how to set the correct upstream and origin remote git repos. Essentially: This is important to understand because if you git clone directly from upstream then confusingly, your origin will be listed as https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD.git So, based on the above, there are 2 main ways to setup your git environment: We recommend the 1st method for the reason mentioned above.
 * origin = Your fork of the FreeCAD git repo AKA https://github.com/GITHUB_USERNAME/FreeCAD.git
 * upstream = The official FreeCAD git repo AKA https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD.git
 * 1st Method: Fork on GitHub and clone your fork locally
 * 2nd Method: Clone FreeCAD official directly to your local machine
