Pulling

suggest change

Introduction

Unlike pushing with Git where your local changes are sent to the central repository’s server, pulling with Git takes the current code on the server and ‘pulls’ it down from the repository’s server to your local machine. This topic explains the process of pulling code from a repository using Git as well as the situations one might encounter while pulling different code into the local copy.
