NAME

|
|
git-pull - Pull and merge from another repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-pull' <repository> <refspec>...
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Runs 'git-fetch' with the given parameters.
|
|
|
|
When only one ref is downloaded, runs 'git resolve' to merge it
|
|
into the local HEAD. Otherwise uses 'git octopus' to merge them
|
|
into the local HEAD.
|
|
|
|
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.
