git-pull(1)

===========

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-pull - Fetch from and merge with another repository or a local branch
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git pull' <options> <repository> <refspec>...
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Runs 'git-fetch' with the given parameters, and calls 'git-merge'
|
|
to merge the retrieved head(s) into the current branch.
|
|
With `--rebase`, calls 'git-rebase' instead of 'git-merge'.
|
|
|
|
Note that you can use `.` (current directory) as the
|
|
<repository> to pull from the local repository -- this is useful
|
|
when merging local branches into the current branch.
|
|
|
|
Also note that options meant for 'git-pull' itself and underlying
|
|
'git-merge' must be given before the options meant for 'git-fetch'.

OPTIONS

|

|
|
|
|
:git-pull: 1
|
|
|
|
--rebase::
|
|
Instead of a merge, perform a rebase after fetching. If
|
|
there is a remote ref for the upstream branch, and this branch
|
|
was rebased since last fetched, the rebase uses that information
|
|
to avoid rebasing non-local changes. To make this the default
|
|
for branch `<name>`, set configuration `branch.<name>.rebase`
|
|
to `true`.

|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
This is a potentially _dangerous_ mode of operation.
|
|
It rewrites history, which does not bode well when you
|
|
published that history already. Do *not* use this option
|
|
unless you have read linkgit:git-rebase[1] carefully.
|
|
|
|
--no-rebase::
|
|
Override earlier --rebase.

DEFAULT BEHAVIOUR
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Often people use `git pull` without giving any parameter.
|
|
Traditionally, this has been equivalent to saying `git pull
|
|
origin`. However, when configuration `branch.<name>.remote` is
|
|
present while on branch `<name>`, that value is used instead of
|
|
`origin`.
|
|
|
|
In order to determine what URL to use to fetch from, the value
|
|
of the configuration `remote.<origin>.url` is consulted
|
|
and if there is not any such variable, the value on `URL: ` line
|
|
in `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<origin>` file is used.
|
|
|
|
In order to determine what remote branches to fetch (and
|
|
optionally store in the tracking branches) when the command is
|
|
run without any refspec parameters on the command line, values
|
|
of the configuration variable `remote.<origin>.fetch` are
|
|
consulted, and if there aren't any, `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<origin>`
|
|
file is consulted and its `Pull: ` lines are used.
