How to work off of a feature branch

This guide describes how to set up a local branch while working off of a feature branch.

Step 1: Create your branch#

Fetch the most recent changes on the upstream remote
```
git fetch upstream
```

Create the local branch off of the upstream remote branch

# example: git checkout -b wins-feature-1 upstream/wins-feature-1
# {FEATURE BRANCH NAME} needs to be identical to the feature branch name on the upstream remote repo
git checkout -b {FEATURE BRANCH NAME} upstream/{FEATURE BRANCH NAME}

Create your new branch off of the new feature branch that you just created!!
```
git checkout -b {YOUR BRANCH}
```

Step 2: Update your branch with upstream changes#

Update the branch with the latest changes using the following command

# example: git pull upstream wins-feature-1
git pull {NAME OF REMOTE} {FEATURE BRANCH NAME}

Step 3: Create a pull request#

Stage and commit your changes

git add {FILES CHANGED}
git commit -m "{COMMIT MESSAGE}"

Push changes to your remote

# this is the same as always
git push origin {YOUR BRANCH}

Create a pull request that is comparing across forks, from your branch to the feature branch with the following settings:
base repository: hackforla/website
base: {FEATURE BRANCH NAME}, where {FEATURE BRANCH NAME} is the name of the feature branch you want to update.
head repository: {YOUR GITHUB HANDLE}/website, where {YOUR GITHUB HANLDE} is your GitHub handle
compare: {YOUR BRANCH}, where {YOUR BRANCH} is the branch you created in step 1
