Git fetch and git pull are two different commands that are used to retrieve changes from a remote repository. However, they work in slightly different ways:
-
Git fetch: This command retrieves the latest changes from the remote repository, but does not merge them into the local repository. It simply updates the local copy of the repository with the latest changes, allowing the developer to review them and decide whether or not to merge them into the local repository.
-
Git pull: This command does the same thing as git fetch, but also merges the changes from the remote repository into the local repository. It retrieves the latest changes from the remote repository and automatically merges them into the local repository, creating a new commit in the process.
In summary, git fetch retrieves the latest changes from the remote repository but does not merge them into the local repository, while git pull retrieves and merges the latest changes from the remote repository into the local repository.
