DOC: Change remote name to upstream
See original GitHub issueThere were some discussions on astropy/astropy-project#151 regarding usage of origin
vs upstream
(vs astropy
) as remote name in examples. As @taldcroft pointed out at https://github.com/astropy/astropy-project/issues/151#issuecomment-795924703 and https://github.com/astropy/astropy-project/issues/151#issuecomment-795927271 , upstream
is the most widely used term, so perhaps it is less confusing if we update our dev docs to use upstream
.
Example doc (one of many) that is affected: docs/development/workflow/git_edit_workflow_examples.rst
@embray , perhaps this can be part of your campaign to improve the dev docs?

I have some plans for redoing a mass cleanup of the dev docs. The Numpy one is clearly worth learning from, and adapting slightly to Astropy.
And yes, I definitely prefer “upstream”.
