del_tag.txt

You probably won't need to do this often (if ever at all) but just in case, here is how to delete a tag from a remote Git repository.

If you have a tag named '12345' then you would just do this:
git tag -d 12345
git push origin :refs/tags/12345

That will remove '12345' from the remote repository.

forking.txt

Once the clone is complete your repo will have a remote named “origin” that points to your fork on github. Don’t let the name confuse you, this does not point to the original repo you forked from. To help you keep track of that repo we will add another remote named “upstream”:

$ git remote add upstream git://github.com/pjhyett/github-services.git

Or with tortoisegit:
-->Repository-Settings->Git->Remote->New
