Git Fetch and Git Pull

[saadhaider]

To those who don't understand this video, I think it's possible that you may be very new to git in which case this video is not really going to help. You already need to have some understanding of what remote repositories and local repositories are and what branching and merging is.

I for one did find this video very useful and concise

[JamieHouseman]

Doesn't really explain the point of fetch then.

[StevePlaysBanjo]

Great tutorial. I was missing the point of how a pull does the merge. This is different than checkout and having your local branch wiped out. Cool.

[namanallawadhi]

thank you sir, a very detailed video.. It cleared many doubt.
Few questions:
1) is there any way we can get git fetched items?
2) Also I noticed that after git fetch, branch name had changes. is it related to git fetch?

[MathGeekQ]

I still don't understand first you said fetch updates your master branch so that it is now in sync with the remote master branch. But then right after you say that it doesn't actually update anything... so which is it? Does fetch update something or does it not? That's the confusing part I have not been able to understand yet

I was trying to undesrtand what git fetch exatcly doeas but I didn't get it from this tutorial. Thanks anyway for your effort.

[angelanorris]

Helpful and clear explanation. Thanks

[voilin]

Does that mean fetch does not actually update local branch? If so then that command is actually useless

[DIProgan]

Hot tip for explaning new vocabulary: Don't use 20 other new words together with it so that nothing is clear.

[Luingus]

So git fetch downloads the updates, and git pull applies the updates?

[tharakakarunarathne]

Just wanna know what happens to the files after fetch. where do they stored?

[ThatOpinionIsWrong]

So if I'm getting it right:
fetch - checks out new changes, without overwriting your local files
pull - pulls new changes from remote and updates your local files

Could improve presentation by using a larger font and better contrast between foreground characters and the background

And one question what in discard in git???? if anyone knows please give me the answer and how can I execute pull, fetch and discard code by java.

[azenkwed]

so, git pull == git fetch + git rebase ?

[pythonlife]

hey bro how I can change my code source in all my users if anyone open my tool, my tool its update automatically pleas bro I need this

[danieller.]

Git branch doesn't list what branch you are currently on, it lists all existing branches.

[nikhilnare]

how can you write git branch our there in your code

[MeetManga]

you didn't explain what does git fetch reall do, you just executed the command ---git fetch

[Anaris]

Talks super fast !This is not an explanation!
