Guys, I probably didn’t finish reading something or just inattentive. I can’t understand what to do in the following situation: I made a fork of the project, but a long time ago, and I would need to change something there and make a pull request, but how to monitor and keep the fork version up to date? Or is it the service itself?

Let's say we forked github.com/rails/rals to get github.com/sl_bug/rails. Declined, Wrote something. and then this construction:
1. git remote add rails_orig git://github.com/rails/rails.git
2. git fetch rails_orig
3. git merge rails_orig/master (I would also like to rebase)
4. fix conflicts if there are
5 .git push origin master

You can pull from the original source to your local repository and then push to your fork. I don't know any other way.
