#GIT PUSH NEW FILES UPDATE#
This gives you the flexibility to resolve the conflict later without the need of network connectivity.Īnother reason you may want to run git fetch is to update to all remote tracking branches before losing network connectivity. If you first operate git fetch, the merge won't be initiated, and you won't be prompted to solve the conflict. Just like a merge conflict that would happen between two different branches, these two different lines of history could contain changes to the same parts of the same file.
Conflicts can occur in this way if you have new local commits, and new commits on the remote. One reason to do this may be that you expect conflicts. However, you may want to use git fetch instead. Git pull is the most common way to update your repository. git merge will update your current branch with any new commits on the remote tracking branch. git fetch updates the remote tracking branches.
When you clone a repository, you clone one working branch, main, and all of the remote tracking branches. To understand what is and isn't affected by git pull, you need to first understand the concept of remote tracking branches. Git pull, a combination of git fetch + git merge, updates some parts of your local repository with changes from the remote repository. That's why git pull is one of the most used Git commands. git pull should be used every day you interact with a repository with a remote, at the minimum. Without running git pull, your local repository will never be updated with changes from the remote. Git pull is one of the 4 remote operations within Git.
