how to change upstream on Github

I have 3 forks of the same project as 3 remotes in my local git.

I am working on the repo Downstream. The Team maintaining Mainline refused to accept my PR. Hence I want to send a PR to Upstream and be able to send PRs to Upstream.

Just cann't seem to figure out how to do it on Github.

NOOB on git. So please point to answer if already answered although I have gone through most similar answers; the reason why this is here is - I don't want changes on my local git repo alone. I want it on github too.

To send a GitHub Pull Request you can either use the GUI app or from the browser. Unfortunately there still is no way to send a Pull Request via the CLI.

Take a look at GitHub's Pull Request page for all of the possible ways to send a PR. https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests

Most importantly when sending a PR upstream make sure you pull down any upstream changes and resolve any potential conflicts first.

git remote add upstream git://github.com/user/repo.git git pull upstream master
