Please give me some suggestions.
Hi Thilina,
Your command adds your fork of phpmyadmin as a remote repo. I assume you want to get the latest changes from the phpmyadmin official repo. So you first have to add the remote phpmyadmin repo: git remote add upstream git://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin.git For getting the latest updates from there, you should use: git pull upstream [branch] (or git fetch as you mentioned).
And finally, if you want to push the changes to your fork, then you
first
have to create your fork and add it as a remote repo: git remote add origin git://github.com/thilinaa/phpmyadmin.git Then, you push with git push origin [branch]
You can also find more details at [0] and [1].

All the best, Alex
Hi Alex,
Thank you very much.
Alex, I did what you asked to do. But still my fork not up to date.
Thilina, how did you create your local repository in the first place?
using 'git clone'
Please show us the output of
git remote -v show
origin git://github.com/thilinaa/phpmyadmin.git (fetch)
origin git://github.com/thilinaa/phpmyadmin.git (push) upstream git://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin.git (fetch) upstream git://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin.git (push)
