		Use:   "sync [<repository>]",
		Short: "Sync a branch with its remote or its fork's parent",
		Long: `Fast-forward a local branch to the branch of the same name on the repository's Git remote.

The branch defaults to the repository's default branch. It is created when it is missing, and it is
never checked out: the branch you are on stays checked out. When the branch is checked out, the
working tree must be clean. Branches that have diverged from the remote are left unchanged.

Given a repository that has no remote in the current directory, sync updates it on the server
instead: a fork's branch is fast-forwarded to its parent's, and a pull mirror fetches its source.`,
		Example: `# Fast-forward the default branch from the repository's remote
$ tea repo sync

# Fast-forward another branch
$ tea repo sync --branch release/1.0

# Update a fork on the server from its parent
$ tea repo sync bob/project`,
