For this line, this is how I do it, because I never work in master and it doesn't bother me to do this "unsafe" operation that destroys the current copy of master, because it's faster and fewer commands. Is there a safer way to recommend doing this that gets master pointing to upstream/master without potentially introducing merge commits (like git pull would do if master contained commits not in upstream/master?)

We might also want a link to this page somewhere in the "housekeeping" section of CONTRIBUTING.md, since that page is not part of the wiki and therefore wouldn't show the sidebar.

| Following the usual Git convention, the following examples assume the remote referring to your fork [username/ChakraCore](https://github.com/username/ChakraCore), which you cloned from, is named `origin`, and [Microsoft/ChakraCore](https://github.com/Microsoft/ChakraCore) is named `upstream`. |

feels kinda weird to have a broken link to username/ChakraCore

Good point. I'll unlink it and maybe write the URL as "code" like this:
https://github.com/<username>/ChakraCore
Good point |
