With that change it is likely you'll want to change update to use 
upstream instead of origin. Though it is probably dependent on if 
the user has upstream which I don't know of a good way to check. 
Or you could just require those to have an upstream.

You can add the remote to your repository with

git remote add upstream 
git at github.com:D-Programming-Language/dmd.git
