Details

▪

GitPull

returns the

GitObject

corresponding to the current HEAD commit if it succeeds, and a

Failure

object otherwise.

▪

If

repo

is not on a branch configured with an upstream branch, then

GitPull

will fail unless you specify the branch to pull from.

▪

If the upstream branch is a local branch, then

GitPull

[repo]

will merge changes from the upstream branch without fetching changes from any remote.

▪

GitPull

[repo,remote,branch]

is effectively equivalent to

GitFetch

[repo,remote]

followed by

GitMerge

[repo,

StringJoin

[remote,"/",branch]]

.

▪

If

GitPull

returns a

Failure

object, it may generate any of the tags associated with

Failure

objects for

GitFetch

,

GitMerge

or

GitRebase

, depending upon how the pull operation failed.

▪

If

None

is given for

remote

, then the remote will be inferred from

branch

. If

branch

is not a remote branch, then

GitPull

will not fetch from any remote, but it will still merge

branch

into the current branch.

▪

If

branch

contains a valid commit specification or

GitObject

which is not a branch, then

GitPull

will treat it as if it were a branch terminating at that commit.
