If branch does not have own commits to be preserved and needs to 
just be synced with master state (assuming D-Programming-Language 
remote is named `upstream`):

    git fetch upstream # download current remote state
    git checkout 2.065 # go to release branch
    git reset --hard upstream/master # make it identical to 
current master
    git push -f origin 2.065 # update own fork
    git push -f upstream 2.065 # update branch in core repos, 
careful here!

I can't imagine any other case when one may want to update 
release branch from master so it must the what you need.
