To resynchronize your fork on GitHub, you need to push to your fork, instructing Git to override any remote changes that are not reflected in your local repository. To do this, run: ``` -git push --force-with-lease +git push --recurse-submodules=on-demand --force-with-lease ``` -!> **DO NOT** run `git push --force-with-lease` on a fork to which other users post commits.

Now your GitHub fork, your local files, and QMK's repository are all the same. From here you can make further needed changes ([use a branch!](newbs_git_using_your_master_branch.md#making-changes)) and post them as normal.
