origin is the remote you've cloned from. From the text above, I guess
you meant it to point to PUBLISH. But all the examples "git clone" you
gave are from UPSTREAM.

You're mixing the case where one "git clone"s from UPSTREAM and "git
remode add"s PUBLISH, and the converse. Both are possible, but the
"origin" remote will be different depending on which one you chose.

I think I don't really get it. IMHO UPSTREAM is name from the repository
you pull from and PUBLISH from the repositiry you push to.

In your document, you're suggesting to clone from ORIGIN, and then to
set pushRemote to origin. This means "git push" will push to ORIGIN,
which doesn't work. Actually, if one follows your instructions, upstream
and origin will point to the same remote.

Did you test your own document on a real-life example? If not, you
should do so before anything else. You should notice this kind of issues
before asking for external review.
