http://stackoverflow.com/questions/292357/whats-the-difference-between-git-pull-and-git-fetch Quoting: In the simplest terms, "git pull" does a "git fetch" followed by a "git merge". You can do a "git fetch" at any time to update your local copy of a remote branch. This operation never changes any of your own branches and is safe to do without changing your working copy. I have even heard of people running "git fetch" periodically in a cron job in the background (although I wouldn't recommend doing this). A "git pull" is what you would do to bring your repository up to date with a remote repository. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
