how to pull the latest changes from git
Case 1: Don’t care about local changes Solution 1: Get the latest code and reset the code git fetch origin git reset --hard origin/[tag/branch/commit-id usually: master] Solution 2: Delete the folder and clone again :D rm -rf [project_folder] git clone [remote_repo] Case 2: Care about local changes Solution 1: no conflicts with new-online version git fetch origin git status will report something like: Your branch is behind 'origin/master' by 1 commit, and can be fast-forwarded. Then get the latest version git pull Solution 2: conflicts with new-online version git fetch origin git status will report something like: error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge: file_name Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge. Aborting Commit your local changes git add . git commit -m ‘Commit msg’ Try to get the changes (will fail) git pull will report something like: Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files. Please, fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>' as appropriate to mark resolution, or use 'git commit -a'. Open the conflict file and fix the conflict. Then: git add . git commit -m ‘Fix conflicts’ git pull will report something like: Already up-to-date.
